摘要
天然橡胶/丁苯橡胶(NR/SBR)共混物被广泛用作轮胎胎侧化合物;然而,丁苯橡胶和天然橡胶中硫化速率的差异以及硫化添加剂的选择性分布会导致动态性能不理想。在本研究中,我们提出了一种简单直接的策略,通过加入类似离子液体的深共晶溶剂(DES)作为新型活性硫化剂,来调节 NR/SBR 混合物中的多尺度结构。添加 DES 可大大提高 ZnO 在 NR/SBR 共混物中的分散性,加速 SBR 和 NR/SBR 共混物的硫化过程,并提高它们的交联密度。此外,DES 与 NR 中的非橡胶成分相互作用,促进了 NR 的硫化。DES 对 NR、SBR 和 NR/SBR 硫化物的线性和非线性流变行为的影响很小,只是在弱应变过冲方面有所增强。可通过改变 DES 与 NR 和 SBR 的混合顺序来控制 DES 在 NR/SBR 混合物中的分布,而选择性地将 DES 置于 SBR 相中可同步 NR/SBR 混合物的硫化速率,从而提高拉伸强度并减少机械滞后。这种方法可为生产具有高强度和低滞后能特点的 NR/SBR 混合产品提供一种可行的方法。
Effect of deep eutectic solvents on vulcanization kinetics and strain-softening behavior of natural rubber/styrene-butadiene rubber
Natural rubber/styrene-butadiene rubber (NR/SBR) blends are widely used as tyre sidewall compounds; however, discrepancies in vulcanization rates and the selective distribution of vulcanization additives in SBR and NR contribute to suboptimal dynamic properties. In this study, we propose a straightforward strategy to modulate the multi-scale structure in NR/SBR blends by incorporating an ionic liquid-like deep eutectic solvent (DES) as a novel reactive vulcanization agent. The addition of DES substantially enhances the dispersion of ZnO within NR/SBR blends, accelerates the vulcanization process of SBR and the NR/SBR blend and increases their crosslinking densities. Furthermore, DES interacts with the non-rubber components of NR, facilitating the vulcanization of NR. The impact of DES on the linear and non-linear rheological behavior of NR, SBR and NR/SBR vulcanizates is minimal, except for an enhancement in weak strain overshooting. The distribution of DES within NR/SBR blends can be manipulated by varying the mixing sequence of DES with NR and SBR, while selectively positioning DES within the SBR phase may synchronise the vulcanization rates of the NR/SBR blend, thereby improving tensile strength and reducing mechanical hysteresis. This approach may provide a viable method for producing NR/SBR blend products characterised by high strength and low hysteresis energy.
