To investigate the reinforcing effects of functional fillers in nitrile rubber (NBR) materials, high-structure carbon black (HS45), coated calcium carbonate (C-CaCO3), silica (200MP), and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were used as functional filler, and carbon black (SRF) as a common filler were used for oil-resistant rubber. The curing and mechanical properties of HS45-, 200MP-, and MWCNT-filled NBR compounds were improved compared to those of the SRF-filled NBR compound. The reinforcing effect also increased with a decrease in the particle size of the fillers. The C-CaCO3-filled NBR compound exhibited no reinforcing effect with increasing filler concentration because of their large primary particle size (2 ㎛). The reinforcing behavior based on 100% modulus of the functional filler based NBR compounds was compared by using several predictive equation models. The reinforcing behavior of the C-CaCO3-filled NBR compound was in accordance with the Smallwood-Einstein equation whereas the 200MP- and MWCNT-filled NBR compounds fitted well with the modified Guth-Gold (m-Guth-Gold) equation. The SRF- and HS45-filled NBR compounds exhibited reinforcing behavior in accordance with the Guth-Gold and m-Guth-Gold equations, respectively, at a low filler content. However, the values of reinforcement parameter (100Mf/100Mu) of the SRF- and HS45-filled NBR compounds were higher than those determined by the predictive equation model at a high filler content. Because the chains of SRF composed of spherical filler particles are similarly changed to rod-like filler particles embedded in a rubber matrix and the reinforcement parameter rapidly increased with a high content of HS45, the higher-structured filler. The reinforcing effectiveness of the functional fillers was numerically evaluated on the basis of the effectiveness index (��SRF/��f) determined by the ratio of the volume fraction of the functional filler (��f) to that of the SRF filler (��SRF) at three unit of reinforcing parameter (100Mf/100Mu). On the basis of their effectiveness index, MWCNT-, 200MP-, and HS45-filled compounds showed higher reinforcing effectiveness of 420%, 70%, and 20% than that of SRF-filled compound, respectively whereas C-CaCO3-filled compound exhibited lower reinforcing effectiveness of -50% than that of SRF-filled compound.

1,3-Diphenylguanidine (DPG) is commonly used as a secondary accelerator which not only acts as booster of cure but also activating silanization reaction. The aim of this study is to increase the interaction between silica and rubber by using DPG. In this study, mixing was proceeded in two steps. The T-1 compound is mixed DPG with silica and silane coupling agent in the kneader at high temperature which is named as $1^{st}$ mixing step. T-3 compound is mixed DPG with curatives in the two-roll mill at low temperature which is named as $2^{nd}$ mixing step. The T-2 compound is mixed a half of DPG in $1^{st}$ mixing step and the remainder is mixed in $2^{nd}$ mixing step. Total DPG content was equal for all compounds. When DPG is mixed with silica, silane coupling agent during the $1^{st}$ mixing step, a decrease in cure rate and an increase in scorch time can be seen. This indicates that DPG is adsorbed on the surface of silica. during rubber processing. However, bound rubber content is increased and dynamic properties are improved. These results are due to the highly accelerated silanization reaction. However, there are no significant difference in 100%, 300% modulus.

연료전지 스택 작동환경에서의 열노화 특성을 살펴보기 위하여 다양한 고무 compound의 내열 및 압축 영구 줄음률의 평가를 실시하고, 스택의 장시간 운전을 통해 접합할 수 있는 대상액인 $H_2SO_4$, $H_2O$, LLC (Ethylene glycol : $H_2O=50:50$)에 대하여 장시간 평가를 실시하였다. NBR과 EPDM은 시간이 경과할수록 침적액의 변색하는 것을 알 수 있었으며, VMQ는 $H_2SO_4$ 분위기에서 시간에 따라 고무가 노화되는 것을 TGA, SEM, EDS 분석을 통하여 확인하였다.

Mechanical properties of polypropylene filled with recycled rubber dusts obtained from the buffing process in sport shoe sole manufacture were investigated. The use of these dusts eliminates the need for the size reduction process which is usually employed in rubber recycling. Two different waxes, polypropylene wax and ethylene vinyl acetate wax, were used in the PP/rubber dust compound. Two different processes, extrusion and injection moulding, were used to study the influence of the blends on the properties. The waxes gave significant improvement in the shaping of the extrudate. It was found that the impact strength of the injection moulded samples were higher than the extruded samples and the virgin PP. The tensile properties (yield stress and modulus) were dependent on the amount of rubber dust addition. An increase in the rubber dust loading gave lower yield stress and modulus.

The uniformly dispersed p-Aramid chopped fiber in a variety of rubber was investigated. The cross section and surface properties in a variety of rubber were characterized by scanning electron microscopy(SEM), weight, tensile strength, cold resistance measurements. The 1mm p-Aramid chopped fiber better uniformly dispersed than the other p-Aramid chopped fiber. The p-Aramid of lmm chopped fiber showed excellent adhesion in rubber composite because of homogeneous dispersion. Consequently, the best 1mm chopped fiber and rubber improved the strength of the composite.

A new possibility of our atmospheric cold plasma torch has been examined on the surface treatment of an air-exposed vulcanized rubber compound. The plasma treatment effect was evaluated by the bondability with another rubber compound using a polyurethane adhesive. The adhesion property was improved by the treatment with plasma containing oxygen radicals. The oxygen radical generation from the plasma was verified and its efficiency was found to be dependent on the cathode material.

The effects of zinc surfactant (ZB) on the bis(triethoxysilylpropyl)disulfide (TESPD)-silica mixture in natural rubber (NR) and solution butadiene-co-styrene rubber(S-SBR) were compared with respect to their rheological property, processability, physical properties, and silica dispersion. In the NR compound, addition of the ZB increased the reversion resistance time (T-2), the tensile modulus, and the BO time; however, lowered the viscosity, the HBU, and tans values. In the S-SBR copound, addition of the ZB increased the $tan{\delta}$ values while lowered the T-2, the tensile modulus the BO time, the viscosity, and the HBU of the compound. In the NR compounds, addition of the ZB significantly increased the processability and mechanical property. However, in the S-SBR compounds, it improved the processability the mechanical property was not improved.

클로로부틸(CIIR) 방진고무 복합소재 내에서 실리카-실란이 기계적 물성과 점탄성에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 실리카-실란이 첨가된 경우, 방진고무의 핵심물성 중 하나인 인열강도는 13%, 파단 신장률은 14%씩 각각 증가하였다. 그 외 인장강도 및 경도 등은 비슷한 값을 보였다. 점탄성 관찰로부터 인열강도 및 파단 신장률의 증가는 실리카-실란의 첨가에 의한 복합소재 내 실리카와 클로로부틸간 3차원 사슬구조의 형성에 따른 것으로 판단되었다. 인열강도 및 파단 신장률의 향상에 관한 메커니즘을 논의하였다.

1906년 George Oenslager에 의해 처음으로 아닐린계 유기 가황 촉진제를 발견한 이 후 현재 많은 종류의 유기 가황 촉진제가 알려져 있으며 이들 유기 가황 촉진제를 그 특성에 맞도록 병용하면 더욱 효과적이고 이것을 2종 혹은 3종을 병용하면 또 다른 효과를 나타낸다. 최근 고무 산업의 많은 분야에서 생산성 향상 및 제조환경 개선 요구에 부응하기위하여 사출 기법이 도입되고 있으며 이를 위해서 고속 가류형 고무 컴파운드의 개발이 요구되고 있다. 따라서 적절한 가류 시간 확보를 위하여 다양한 종류의 촉진제에 대한 연구, 컴파운드의 적절한 저장 안정 기간 확보에 대한 연구, pellet 형상 제조 시 자중에 의한 autoadhesion 감소에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 NR/BR compounds에 MBTS(2,2' Dithiobisbenzothiazole), TMTM(Tetramethylthiuram Monosulfide), ZDMC(Zinc dimethyldithiocarbamate), CBS(N-Cyclohexyl benzothiazolyl-2-sulfenamide), DPG(Diphenylguanidine)를 각각 병용하여 가황 고무의 가황 특성 및 기계적 물성을 비교 분석하였다. 촉진제 병용에 따른 NR/BR compounds를 평가한 결과 MBTS 1.5 phr, TMTM 0.5 phr, DPG 0.15 phr을 사용한 경우 가장 우수한 가황 특성($t_{90}$: 235 sec, $T_{max}$: 5.77 Nm)을 나타내었으며 100, 300% 모듈러스 및 인열 강도 값이 각각 2.180, 5.656 MPa, 59.58 kgf/cm으로 가장 우수한 결과를 나타내었다.
