Studies on the Chemical Treatment of Silica for Synthetic Rubber Reinforcement (II) -Silica Treatment by LBR-MDI-

합성(合成)고무 보강제(補强劑) Silica의 화학처리(化學處理)에 관(關)한 연구(硏究) (II) -MDI 처리(處理) Silica의 LBR처리(處理)-

The reinforcement of Inorganic filler silica treated with LBR-MDI In SBR vulcanizates were Investigated. The inorganic filler silica treated with MDI on unmodified surface and that of silica treated by MDI was retreated with LBR. The charateristics of vulcanization, physical properties, surface properites and dynamic properties were investigated after mixing those silica with SBR and unmodified silica with SBR. Rheometric studies of the vulcanization showed that S-series has fast scorch $time(t_{10})$ and an optimum cure $time(t_{90})$ in the SBR compounds. And it was turned out that SBR vulcanizates compounded with LBR treated silica was better than any other componnds in hardness, tensile strenght, 100 300% modula and elongation. We could confirm that urea bonding is formed from IR spectrum. We concluded that L-series shows the best reinforcement effect in SBR vulcanizates.
