A finite element procedure for the analysis of rubber-like hyperelastic material is developed. The volumetric incompressiblity conditions of the rubber deformation is included in the formulation by using penalty method. In this paper, the behavior of the rubber deformation is represented by hyperelastic constitutive relations based on a generalized Mooney-Rivlin model. The principle of virtual work is used to derive nonlinear finite element equation for the large displacement problem and presented in total-Lagrangian description. The finite element procedure using analytic differentiation resulted in very close solution to the result of the well known commercial packages NISAII AND ABAQUS. Numerical tests show that the results from the numerical differentiation method coincide very well with those from the analytic method and the well known commercial packages in static analysis. The convergency of rubber usingν iteration method is also discussed.

Surface of crystalline silica was sequentially reacted with silane(A 187), liquid $rubber(CTBN{\times}8)$, and vinyl monomer(GMA) in existence of TEA(triethylamine) or BPO(benzoyl peroxide). It was mixed with epoxy resin at a ratio $0{\times}60%$ (vol. % ) of total component. For mixtures, viscous properties were investigated experimentally. 1) Coating ratio depended on pH of mixture and quantity of catalyst. 2) Treated silica represented lower viscosity than untreated. 3) Thixotropic index represented best at silica_content $15{\sim}23%$ and showed more large deviation over $120^{\circ}C$. 4) Relative viscosity followed kernel's at $0{\times}10%$ of silica content and get out of Mooney's at more than 15%.

The vulcanization characteristics, physical and electrical properties have been measured for magnetite-loaded CM compounds containing various concentration of magnetite. Samples of the various concentration of magnetite are characterized by oscillating disk rheometer, mooney viscometer, tensometer and resistance meter. The morphology and dispersion of magnetite are analyzed by scanning electron microscope(SEM). The results obtained are as follows : 1. The CM compound without magnetite shows plain curve, while the CM compounds containing magnetite show short curves. 2. The maximum volume of magnetite is 600 phr in the CM compounds. The magnetite of 30 to 150 phr of magnetite act as reinforcement agents and the 50 phr magnetite shows maximum tensile strength. 3. The electric conductivity is mostly influenced by the conditions of temperature, compacting pressure, and magnetite orientation. Further efforts should be made to develop a new design in various electric conductivity fillers for the most efficient and applicable rubber products.

The characteristics of IR and IR blended elastomers, for footwear by means of blending with NR and SBR, have been studied. The results obtained were as follows: 1. The mastication of IR was almost not required, where as NR and SBR are necessary. Therefore mixing time was much reduced because of speedy filler feeding. 2. Disadvantage of low Mooney viscosity was covered by blending with NR and SBR, and by loading filler. Superior flow property in comparison to other polymers was worthy and valuable in providing formulas for mould flow, 3. The elongation property of green stocks and vulcanizates was shown smooth surface for extruded and calendered stocks, and facilitated fabrication processes. 4. Because of slow vulcanization, IR is required to control vulcanization time by adding proper accelerators. This property, in turn, made possible to improve the storing stability of green stocks by controlling scorch time.

The effect of the surface area of silicas on their reinforcing performance to styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) compounds was systematically investigated. The feasibility of the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area ($S_{BET}$) as a parameter representing the characteristics of the silicas was discussed compared to the mesopore volume, c value, oil absorption, and uptake of silane. The increase in $S_{BET}$ of silicas caused a considerable increase in Mooney viscosity, minimum torque, and hysteresis loss of the silica-filled SBR compounds, while significantly enhancing their abrasion property. These changes were explained by the attrition between the hydrophilic silica surface and the hydrophobic rubber chains. As expected, the change in $S_{BET}$ did not induce any remarkable changes in the cure, processing, tensile, and dynamic properties of the silica-filled SBR compounds because the crosslinking density of the rubber chains mainly determined these properties.

Coupling rubber pad are important components in railway vehicles. It can be used for reduce shock, vibration and noise. Simple tension, equi-biaxial tension and pure shear test were performed to acquire the coefficient of rubber material which were Mooney-Rivlin and Ogden model. The finite element analysis was executed to evaluate the behavior of deformation and stress distribution by using the commercial finite element analysis code. Useful life evaluation are very important in design procedure to assure the safety and reliability of the rubber components. In this paper, useful life prediction of rubber pad for railway vehicle were experimentally investigated. Accelerated heat-aging test for rubber material were carried. Compression set results changes as the threshold are used for assessment of the useful life and time to threshold value were plotted against reciprocal of absolute temperature to give the Arrhenius plot.

Magneto-rheological elastomers (MREs) are smart materials in which the inherent stiffness and damping properties can be changed by the influence of an external magnetic field. The magneto-rheological (MR) effect depends on the orientation characteristics of the dispersed magneto-responsible particles (MRPs) in the matrix. In this study, natural rubber (NR) and ethylene propylene diene rubber (EPDM) were blended and used as a matrix of an MRE. EPDM was pre-cured before blending with NR. The Mooney viscosity, curing characteristics, and mechanical properties were analyzed with various pre-curing conditions of EPDM and the NR/EPDM blend. The results show that excellent mechanical properties of the NR/EPDM blend-based MRE were obtained when the pre-curing time of EPDM was 60 min. The aging property of the NR-based MRE was improved by the introduction of pre-cured EPDM. Also, the anisotropic MRE showed a higher MR effect than that of the isotropic MRE.

Vulcanization characterstics and physical properties of the combined antioxidants have been studied by means of the Mooney viscometer, the Monsanto disc rheometer and so on. According to the test results, MHPPD with IPPD system has shown faster cure rate, better optimum cure time and shorter scorch time than other systems. The vulcanizate comprised of the MHPPD with IPPD antioxidant system has taken advantage of heat resistance, fluid resistance and antiozone resistance.
