Abstract

Self vulcanizable blend system for magnetorheological elastomer (MRE) has been studied by dispersing magneto responsible particle (MRP) on elastomeric matrix. Chloroprene rubber was modified with maleic anhydride (MAH) using heat and pressure which is called dynamic maleation process. The optimum graft ratio of MAH was found at 10 phr contents and reaction temperature of $100^{\circ}C$. This could be confirmed by FT-IR analysis. Epoxided natural rubber (ENR) was blended with modified CR-g-MAH for self vulcanization. The optimum amounts of ENR was 30 wt% in terms of scorch time and curing rate. MRE was manufactured by electromagnetic equipment and orientation of MRE was confirmed by SEM. Finally, it was found that the tensile strength of anisotropic-MRE was higher than that of isotropic-MRE and the hardness was reverse.

가교제 사용 없이 가교반응을 진행할 수 있는 경화시스템에 자기응답 입자를 분산시켜 자기유변 탄성체를 제작하였다. 클로로프렌 고무(CR)와 Maleic Anhydride(MAH)의 열과 압력을 이용한 개질법인 dynamic maleation의 공정을 이용하여 10 phr, $100^{\circ}C$에서 최적의 grafting ratio를 가짐을 FT-IR를 이용하여 확인하였다. 개질된 CR-g-MAH와 에폭시화 천연고무(ENR)를 반응 블렌드시켜 가교시켰으며 가교특성은 고무레오미터를 이용하여 측정하였으며, 30 wt%의 ENR를 첨가하였을 때 성형하기 적합한 스코치 시간과 가교속도를 가지는 것을 확인하였다. 자기응답성 입자(MRP)를 배향시키기 위해 설계 제작한 자기장부여장치를 이용하여 효율적으로 입자가 배향된 자기 유변 탄성체를 제조하였다. SEM을 통해 MRP의 분산 및 배향을 확인하였으며, 이방성 자기유변 탄성체의 인장강도는 등방성 자기유변 탄성체보다 낮고, 경도는 높음을 확인하였다.
