Influence of the Method of Graphene Introduction on Physical and Mechanical Properties of Thermoplastic Elastomers

Abstract

A method for reinforcing a compound based on styrene-butadiene thermoplastic elastomer has been developed. The mechanical characteristics of reinforced compounds have been studied. A comparative analysis of various methods for introducing a nanofiller into a polymer matrix has been carried out. The developed technique shows an increase in the compressive strength of the composition by 50%, as well as tensile strength by 20%.
