Mechanical performance of styrene-butadiene-rubber filled with carbon nanoparticles prepared by mechanical mixing

TL;DR: In this paper, a modified Halpin-Tsai model based on the concept of an equivalent composite particle, consisting of rubber bound, occluded rubber and nanoparticle, was proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of imperfect interface on the elastic moduli of syntactic foams

TL;DR: In this article, the assumption of perfect adhesion between the inclusion and the matrix is relaxed to allow for possible localized slip and separation at the particle interface, and the analytical results obtained considering imperfect interface well agree with the measured elastic modulus reported in the literature.

Determination of Primary Relaxation Temperatures and Melting Points of Ethylene Vinyl Acetate Copolymers

TL;DR: In this paper, the relationship between copolymer composition and transition temperatures was studied by means of differential scanning calorimetric analysis and dynamic mechanical spectroscopy, and six samples of ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymers containing from 5 to 40 mass per cent of vinyl acyclic acid (VA) were studied.
