Modeling Young’s modulus of rubber–clay nanocomposites using composite theories

TL;DR: In this paper, the aspect ratios of clay platelets in rubber-clay nanocomposites were determined by statistically analyzing TEM micrographs, and the modulus reduction factor (MRF) for the platelet-like fillers of 0.66, determined by fitting experimental data, was introduced into the above three equations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rubber-pristine clay nanocomposites prepared by co-coagulating rubber latex and clay aqueous suspension

TL;DR: In this paper, the structure of several rubber-clay nanocomposites, including styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) and natural rubber (NR), were investigated using X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) micrographs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure and properties of nitrile rubber (NBR)–clay nanocomposites by co‐coagulating NBR latex and clay aqueous suspension

TL;DR: In this article, the authors showed that the silicate layers of clay were dispersed in the NBR matrix at the nano-level and had a planar orientation, and X-ray diffraction indicated that there were some nonexfoliated silicates layers in NBR-clay nanocomposites.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of particle size on the properties of Mg(OH)2-filled rubber composites

TL;DR: In this article, a novel nanomagnesium hydroxide powder and three kinds of micro-Mg(OH)2, with different particle sizes, were chosen as fillers and mixed with EPDM to form a series of composites by a traditional rubber-processing technique.
