3가지 대표적인 가황계인 conventional vulcanization(Conv), semi-efficient vulcanization (Semi-EV), efficient vulcanization(EV)방법을 카본블랙 충전 천연고무 배합고무에 대해 적용하고, 이들 가황계에 따른 가황특성, 인장특성, 동적 점탄성을 조사하였다. 또한 가황온도가 배합고무의 기계적 물성과 노화저항성에 미치는 영향도 조사하였다. Conv 가황계가 Semi-EV나 EV 가황계에 비해 가황속도는 낮았으나 최대 토오크는 높았다. 인장특성은 Conv 가황계가 Semi-EV나 EV 가황계에 비해 높은 모듈러스를 나타내었고, 파괴점에서의 인장강도는 유사한 반면 신장율은 낮았다. 가황온도 증가에 따라 경도, 모듈러스 및 인장강도는 감소하였고, 감소 정도는 EV나 Semi-EV 가황계가 Conv 가황계보다 낮았다. 또한 열노화에 대한 저항성은 EV 가황계가 Conv 가황계보다 월등히 우수하였다.

In this study, we investigated for natural rubber foam to replace petrochemical-based neoprene foam. Experiments were conducted on vulcanization system and 2-step foaming process of natural rubber. The vulcanization system were EV(Efficient Vulcanization Cure), Semi-EV(Semi-Efficient Vulcanization Cure) and CV(Conventional Vulcanization Cure). In the 2-step foaming process, first molding temperature was 140℃, times were 15, 20, 25, and 30minutes, and the second molding temperature was 160℃, the times 5, 10, 15, and 20minutes. The cure and viscosity characterization were evaluated by oscillating disc rheometer (ODR) and mooney viscosmeter. Various mechanical characteristics, including hardness, tensile strength, elongation at the point of rupture, and tear strength, were quantified. Subsequently, an assessment of alterations in these mechanical attributes was conducted post-immersion in a NaCl solution. In addition degree of volume change was measured after immersing the NR foam in NaCl solution and the low-temperature permanent compression set was evaluated at 4℃. And expansion ratio and shrinkage ratio of NR foam were evaluated for 28 days. As a result the EV vulcanization system showed the least change in physical properties before and after salt water immersion, and the lowest shrinkage ratio for 28 days. In addition it was confirmed that the 2-step foaming optimum condition differed depending on the appropriate vulcanization condition.

대표적 가교형태 변화에 따른 유사한 stress-strain 특성을 나타내는 조건하에서 공정특성 및 전반적 물성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 천연고무 기본 배합에서 촉진제나 황 공여체(sulfur donor) 증가에 따라 induction time은 길어지나, 가류속도는 빨라졌다. 가교계 변화에 따른 인장강도의 영향은 매우 적은 반면 신장율은 conventional vulcanization (CV)계에서 efficient vulcanization (EV)계로 갈수록 감소하는 경향을 보여 주었다. Blow-out이 발생하는 시간을 가교형태에 따라 비교하여 보면 CV

Fatigue properties of rubber are one of the most important characteristics in the rubber industry. In this study, the fatigue properties of MREs (magneto-rheological elastomers) based on NR (natural rubber), EPDM (ethylene-propylene diene monomer), and AEM (ethylene/acrylic elastomer) were investigated. For comparison, MREs with a Shore hardness of 60A were prepared. According to the relative results, the fatigue properties of EPDM MRE were the worst. Thus, we investigated methods to improve the fatigue properties of EPDM MRE by varying the carbon black content and curing systems of EPDM as the matrix of the MRE. Dynamic properties were measured using a fatigue tester and an RPA (rubber process analyzer), and the XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) was used to analyze the curing system of the EPDM matrix. According to the results, the Payne effect increased and the fatigue resistance decreased as the carbon black content increased. In case of the curing system, the CV (conventional vulcanization) system was superior to the EV (efficient vulcanization) system in terms of the fatigue resistance. This was because the number of flexible bonds in the case of the CV system was higher than that in the case of the EV system. However, the EV system showed excellent mechanical properties because it had many monosulfidic bonds with strong binding energy.

가황계에 따른 NR/BR 블렌드의 물리적 기계적 특성의 변화를 가교밀도의 차이로 해석하였다. 경화제의 비율 및 함량이 증가함에 따라 가황속도 및 최대 토오크는 증가를 보였으며, 가교밀도도 증가하였다. 가교밀도의 증가에 따라 경도, 300% 모듈러스, 반발탄성 및 마모특성은 증가를 보인 반면에 발열에 의한 온도 상승 및 $60^{\circ}C$에서의 tan $\delta$는 감소를 보였다. 따라서 높은 하중이 가해지는 트럭/버스 타이어의 트레드 부위에 사용하는 경우 회전저항이 적은 semi-EV 가황계가 가장 적절한 가황 시스템으로 판단되었다.
