Styrene-butadiene rubber(SBR) is a copolymer of styrene and butadiene. It is composed of 1,2-unit, 1,4-unit, and styrene, and its properties are dependent on its microstructure. In general, rubber composites contain a single rubber or a blended rubber. Similarly, SBR is used by mixing with natural rubber(NR) and butadiene rubber(BR). The composition of a rubber article affects its physical and chemical properties. Herein, an analytical method for determining the microstructure of SBR using via pyrolysis is introduced. Pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry is widely used to analyze the microstructure of polymeric materials. The microstructure of SBR can be determined by analyzing the principal pyrolysis products formed from SBR, such as 4-vinylcyclohexene, styrene, 2-phenylpropene, 3-phenylcyclopentene, and 4-phenylcyclohexene. An analytical method for determining the composition of SBR/NR, SBR/BR, and SBR/NR/BR blends via pyrolysis is introduced. The composition of blended rubber can be determined by analyzing the principal pyrolysis products formed from each rubber component.

A calibration curve is needed to determine the SBR and BR blend ratio of SBR/BR blend rubber compounds using pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass chromatography (Py-GC/MS) or Py-GC. In general, a calibration curve is obtained using reference SBR/BR vulcanizates with various blend ratios. In this study, the calibration curves were obtained using reference samples made of rubber solutions and were compared to those plotted using the reference SBR/BR vulcanizates. Calibration curves using variations of 1,3-butadiene/styrene, 4-vinylcyclohexene (VCH)/styrene, 2-phenylpropene (PhP)/butadiene, PhP/VCH, 4-phenylcyclohexene (PhCH)/butadiene, and PhCH/VCH ratios with the BR content were examined for the suitability. We found that the calibration curves obtained using the mixed rubber solution references (1,3-butadiene/styrene and PhP/butadiene) could replace those constructed using the reference SBR/BR vulcanizates. The calibration curves of 1,3-butadiene/styrene and PhP/butadiene obtained using the raw references can be used for the determination of the SBR/BR blend ratios by applying some correction factors.

Styrene butadiene rubber (SBR)/ 카렬블랙 복합체의 전기저항 특성과 전기전도 특성을 연구하기 위하여 표면저항, 체적저항, point to point 저항, 정전하 소멸시간 및 전기전도 실험을 4종의 카본블랙을 사용하여 실시하였다. 약 50phr의 카본블랙이 첨가되었을 때, 모든 저항값이 급격히 감소하는 임계영역 (Rc)을 나타내었다. 카본블랙이 첨가된 SBR 복합체의 전류밀도는 전기장의 증가에 따라 증가하며, 기울기 (dJ/dE)가 증가하는 임계점 (Pc)이 존재하였으며, 이때의 전기전도기구는 임계점을 기준으로 하여 낮은 전기장 영역에서는 ohmic 전도, 높은 전기장 영역에서는 공간전하 제한전도임을 알 수 있었다.

UV를 이용하여 반응성 모노머인 아크릴아미드를 SBR에 광그라프트 시키는데 있어서 주요한 인자인 모노머 농도, 조사시간 그리고 카본블랙의 함량이 모노머의 그라프트율에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 광개시제로는 benzophenone을 사용하였다. 아크릴아미드의 그라프트율을 측정하기 위하여 FT-IR ATR과 증류수를 이용하여 정접촉각을 측정하였다. 아크릴아미드의 함량과 UV 조사시간이 증가함에 따라 그라프트율은 증가하였으며 또한 접촉각은 감소하는 현상을 나타내었다. SBR중 카본블랙 함량이 증가함에 따라 그라프트율이 증가함을 알 수 있었다.

The wear behavior of styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) and butadiene rubber (BR) was investigated using a blade-type abrader with a steel blade (SB), Ti-coated tungsten carbide blade (TiB), or zirconia blade (ZB). The wear rate of SBR against SB and TiB decreased with increasing number of revolutions because of the blunting of the blades during wear. However, the wear rate of SBR against ZB remained nearly constant with little blade blunting. Generally, the wear rate of BR was largely unaffected by the blade material used for abrasion. The wear rate and frictional coefficient of SBR were found to be higher than those of BR at similar levels of frictional energy input. A power-law relationship was found between the wear rate and frictional energy input during abrasion. A well-known Schallamach pattern was observed for SBR, while a much finer pattern was observed for BR. The blade material affects the wear rate of the rubbers because the macromolecular free radicals and blade tend to undergo mechano-chemical reactions. The inorganic ZB was found to be the most inert for such a mechanism.

Formation of bound rubber depends on the filler-polymer interactions including physical adsorption, chemisorption, and mechanical interaction. Bound rubbers consist of tightly and loosely bound ones. Styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) is composed of styrene, 1,2-, cis-1,4-, and trans-1,4-units. Filler-polymer interactions of each components of SBR with fillers, carbon black and silica, were studied by analysis of microstructure of the bound rubber. Filler-polymer interaction of the 1,2-unit with the fillers was found to be stronger than those of the other components and this phenomenon was shown more clearly in the tightly bound rubber.

본 연구에서는 열가소성고무를 중심으로 한 스티렌 공중합체의 유변학적 특성을 Couette 보정치를 사용하여 해석하였다. 실험재료로는 SBS(Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene), SEBS(Styrene-Ethylene/Buthylene-Styrene), SIS(Styrene-Isoprene-Styrene)을 사용하였고 탄성체의 성격을 비교하기 위하여SBS(Styrene-Butadiene Rubber)와 IR(Isoprene Rubber)를 사용하였다, 실험결과 Couette 보정치는 온도가 증가할수록 감소하였다. 또한 열가소성 고부 (SBS, SEBS, SIS)의 보정치는 거의 비슷한 값을 나타내었으며 고무(IR, SBR)의 보정치는 열가소성고무에서보다 다소 높은 값을 나타내었다. 충진제를 첨가하였을 경우 충진제의 양 이 증가할수록 Couette 보정치는 감소하였다.

공정조제의 성분 및 함량이 styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) 배합고무의 유변학적 특성과 기계적 물성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 공정조제로 지방산, 지방산 유도 금속염, 에스테르 알코올, 아미드 성분을 단독 혹은 혼합한 5종의 상용제품을 선택하였다. 공정조제 첨가에 따른 무니점도와 전단점도의 감소는 금속염이 주성분인 공정조제가 가장 컸고, 고분자량의 지방산 알콜이나 에스터의 함량이 높은 공정조제가 낮았다. 공정조제의 함량증가에 따라 인장 모듈러스는 감소하고, 발열은 증가하는 경향을 나타내었지만, 극한물성인 인장강도와 파단신장율에는 그다지 큰 영향을 미치지 않았다.

The present work describes modification of dual phase filler by electron beam irradiation in presence of multifunctional acrylates like trimethylol propane triacrylate (TMPTA) or silane coupling agent like bis (3-triethoxysilylpropyltetrasulphide) and in-fluence of the modified fillers on the physical properties of styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) vulcanizates. Modulus at 300 % elongation increases whereas the tensile strength decreases with increase in radiation dose for the dual phase filler loaded styrene-butadiene rubber vulcanizates (SBR). However, modulus and tensile strength significantly increase, which is more, pronounced at higher filler loadings for TMPTA modified dual phase filler loaded SBR. These changes in properties are explained by the equilibrium swelling data and Kraus plot interpreting the polymer-filler interaction. Electron beam modification of the filler results in a reduction of tan ${\delta}$ at $70^{\circ}C$, a parameter for rolling resistance and increase in tan ${\delta}$ at $0^{\circ}C$, a parameter for wet skid resistance of the SBR vulcanizates. Finally, the influence of modified fillers on the properties like abrasion resistance, tear strength and fatigue failure and the improvement in the properties have been explained in terms of polymer-filler interaction.
