With the help of mechanical mixing method such as Banbury mixer and open 2 roll mill, ethylene propylene diene terpolymer (EPDM) was blended with the chloroprene rubber (CR) then mechanical properties and ozone resistance test of blends were subsequently investigated. It was noted that the hardness increased with an increasing of CR contents. Generally the hardness was increased with heat aging time most likely due to the post cure. In ozone resistance test of blend, after 8 hours a portion of fine crack is obtained for pure CR. It is confirmed that ozone resistance is greatly improved by addition of 25wt% EPDM to CR.

일반적으로 butyl 고무(IIR : isobutylene isoprene rubber)는 우수한 내기체투과성 및 저반발 탄성체로서 우수한 충격흡수성을 갖는다. 본 실험에서는 butyl고무에 EPDM(ethylene propylene diene monomer)을 기계적 혼련법으로 blend 혼련물을 제조하여 이들의 가교 거동, 물리적 성질 및 내오존성 등을 측정하였다. EPDM 고무량이 증가할수록 최적 가황시간이 단축되는 경향을 보였다. 기체투과속도 테스트에 의한 내기체투과성 측정 결과 butyl고무량이 50 wt% 이상일 경우에는 기체투과도가 현저히 감소하였다. 한편 butyl rubber/EPDM 블렌드의 경우에 EPDM의 함량이 25 wt.% 이상 함유될 경우 내오존성이 향상되어 50 pphm, $50^{\circ}C$, 120시간 조건에서도 아무런 표면변화가 없었다.

Emulsion styrene-butadiene rubber silica wet masterbatch (ESBR silica WMB) technology was studied to develop highly filled and highly dispersed silica compounds, involving the preparation of a composite by co-coagulating the modified silica and the rubber latex in a liquid phase. Previous studies have shown that when manufacturing ESBR silica WMB/Butadiene silica dry masterbatch (BR silica DMB) blend compounds, preparing BR silica dry masterbatch and mixing it with ESBR silica WMB gave excellent results. However, WMB still has the problem of lower crosslink density due to residual surfactants. Therefore, in this study, tetrabenzylthiuram disulfide (TBzTD) was added instead of diphenyl guanidine (DPG) in the ESBR silica WMB/BR silica DMB blend compounds and sulfur/CBS contents were increased to evaluate their cure characteristics, crosslink densities, mechanical properties, and dynamic viscoelastic properties. TBzTD was found to be more effective in increasing the crosslink density and to produce superior properties compared to DPG. In addition, with increasing sulfur/CBS contents, mechanical properties and rolling resistance were enhanced due to high crosslink density, but the abrasion resistance was not significantly changed because of the toughness.

Methylmetharylate grafted latex(MGL) was prepared by emulsion graft copolymerization of methyl methacrylate onto natural rubber latex(NRL) by using t-butyl hydroperoxide and tetraethylene pentamine in an aqueous medium. Blending of MGL and NRL with different mixing ratio carried out and viscosity and particle size distribution of blend latex were determined. It was found that the optimum condition of mature time, vulcanizing temperature and time for preparation of blend latex films were investigated. latex films prepared by dipping process were meaured. As the reuslt, blend latex(NR-d-MG) films obtained from two-dipping system were more excellent than NR and MG film obtained from one-dipping system.

고가이면서 고기능성 특수고무의 한 종류인 불소고무(Fluororubber) 신재와 폐 불소고무를 고온 전단분쇄기술로 분말화한 재료(recycled FKM)를 다양한 혼합비로 블렌드물을 제조하고 재생재료의 함량에 따른 블렌드물의 가황 특성, 물리적 성질의 변화를 조사하였으며, 이 블렌드물의 열 및 연료에 대한 물성변화율을 측정하였다. 불소고무(FKM) 신재에 고온 전단분쇄 기술로 제조한 재생 불소재료를 $0{\sim}50$ phr까지 블렌드하여 각종 물성을 측정한 결과, 재생불소고무의 배합조성이 30 phr인 블렌드물이 저가이면서도 분산성, 내열성 및 내연료유성의 물성변화율이 가장 작은 배합구성으로 나타났다.

고무상으로 니트릴고무(NBR)을 플라스틱상으로 isotactic 폴리프로필렌(iPP)을 고무:플라스틱 비율이 70:30(wt:wt)되도록 내부혼합기에서 용융 혼합하고, 과산화물 가교제(DCP) 및 메타크릴산 아연염(ZDMA)을 첨가하여 동적 가교시킨 블렌드를 제조하였다. DCP만을 사용하여 동적가교시킨 블렌드에 비해 DCP와 ZDMA를 함께 첨가하여 제조한 동적가교시킨 블렌드가 우수한 인장물성, 인열강도 및 고무탄성을 나타내었다. 이는 메타크릴간 아연염의 첨가에 의해 동적가교과정 중 고무상의 가교밀도가 증가되고, 가교된 고무상이 플라스틱 연속상에 더 미세하게 분산되기 때문인 것으로 생각되었다. 또한, 제조된 블렌드는 반복 가공 시 물성의 큰 저하가 나타나지 않아 재활용성이 가능한 열가소성탄성체임을 알 수 있었다.

The demand for truck bus radial (TBR) tires with enhanced fuel efficiency and wear resistance have grown in recent years. In addition, as the issue of particulate matter and air pollution increases, efforts are being made to reduce the generation of particulate matter. In this study, the properties of epoxidized natural rubber (ENR) containing a silica-friendly functional group were evaluated by considering it as a base rubber and varying the silica ratio in this binary filler system. The results showed that the wear resistance of the NR/BR blend compound decreased as the silica ratio increased. In contrast, the ENR/BR blend compound exhibited an increase in wear resistance as the silica ratio was increased. In particular, the ENR-50/BR blend compound showed the best wear resistance due to the presence of several epoxide groups. Furthermore, we observed that for tan 𝛿 at 60℃, higher epoxide content resulted in the higher T_g of the rubber, indicating a higher tan 𝛿 at 60℃. On the other hand, it was confirmed that increasing the silica ratio decreased the value of tan 𝛿 at 60℃ in all compounds. In addition, we measured the amount of wear particulate matters generated from the compound wear. These measurements confirmed that in the binary filler system, regardless of the filler type, the quantity of the generated wear particulate matters as the filler-rubber interaction increased. In conclusion, the silica filled ENR/BR blend compound exhibited the lowest generation of wear particulate matters.

The application of powerful ultrasound to rubber recycling is a very recent field of study. An ultrasonic field creates high frequency extension-contraction stresses by acoustic cavitation. The breakdown of rubber network occurs primarily around pulsating cavities due to the highest level of strain produced by high-power ultrasound. Stronger reductions of cross-link density were observed at a higher pressure, indicating an important role of pressure during ultrasonic recycling. Visible bubbles were observed during ultrasonic treatment as a proof of acoustic cavitation. Shearing effect has a significant influence on improving the efficiency of ultrasonic treatment. After the ultrasonic treatment, the cross-link densities of NR/SBR blends were lower than those of NR and SBR due to the reduced degree of unsaturation and chemical reactions. Carbon black fillers increase the probability of bond scission during ultrasonic treatment, due to the restricted mobility. The mechanical properties of ground tire rubber (GRT)/HDPE blends were improved by ultrasonic treatment and dynamic revulcanization. Ultrasonic treatment of GRT in the presence of HDPE matrix was found to give better mechanical properties due to the chemical reactions between rubber and plastic phases.

We have studied the blending effects of Diene NF 35R and Turfdene 1000R at various blending ratios 100/0, 70/30, 50/50, 30/70, 0/100, and of carbon black NAF and ISAF at various compounding ratios of 55 PHR, 65PHR, 75PHR for tyre tread rubber. As the results, it was found that; 1. For tyre tread rubber, as the blending ratio, Diene NF 35R/Turfdene 1000R, indicated 30/70, the physical properties we examined were most excellent. 2. Excellent result was obtained in case of carbon black compounding ratio of 63PHR. The compounding of ISAF made better result than that of HAF for tensile strength, tearing strength, and abrasion quantity. 3. Heat buildup obtained from compounding carbon black HAF indicated low temperature than that from compounding carbon black ISAF. As the compounding amount of carbon black increased, the heat buildup improved, and as the blending amount of Diene NF 35R decreased, the heat buildup dropped. 4. Carbon black was more efficient to Turfdene 1000R than to Diene NF 35R. 5. In this pysical properties, mooney viscosity, and mooney scorch time, as the compounding amount of carbon black increased, the values of mooney viscosity increased, but that of mooney scorch time dropped.
