Abstract
The aim of this study is to compare the influence of vulcanizates strategy on the mechanical properties and viscoelastic behaviour of the new elastomeric based composites based on NR/BR compound that we try actually to design the new compositions in order to improve the new family of elastomeric composites used extensively in engineering applications.
Essentially the basic mixture of NR/BR based elastomeric composites with different vulcanization temperatures and curing systems containing different filler s and reinforcements were characterized (for example in two vulcanizates: 140°C and 160°C) and to compare their tensile properties and viscoelastic behaviours were determined using of micro indentation technique that is a more reliable and efficient tool for practical applications.
Essentially, in detail with the elastic indentation load-depth model at the maximum indentation load describes the indentation depth versus time curves quite well for the four different compounds of elastomeric based composites. It is hoped that these parameters may be used in the evaluation and development of more strong and long lasting elastomeric composites. It was also observed that the model describes the indentation depth versus time curves very well for the mixture of NR/BR elastomeric composite sheets.
