Abstract:
The rheological characteristics of short Nylon-6 fiber-reinforced Styrene
Butadiene rubber (SBR) in the presence of epoxy resin-based bonding agent were
studied with respect to the effect of shear rate, fiber concentration , and temperature
on shear viscosity and die swell using a capillary rheonzeter. All the composites
containing bonding agent showed a pseudoplastic nature, which decreased
with increasing temperature. Shear viscosity was increased in the presence of
fibers. The temperature sensitivity of the SBR matrices was reduced on introduction
of fibers. The temperature sensitivity of the melts was found to be lower at
higher shear rates. Die swell was reduced in the presence of fibers. Relative viscosity
of the composites increased with shear rate. In the presence of epoxy resin
bonding agent the temperature sensitivity of the mixes increased. Die swell was
larger in the presence of bonding agent.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT: Rubber seed oil was used as a multipurpose ingredient in natural rubber
(NR) and styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) compounds. The study shows that the oil,
when substituted for conventional plasticiser, imparts excellent mechanical properties
to NR and SBR vulcanizates. Further, it also improves aging resistance, reduces cure
time, increases abrasion resistance and flex resistance, and reduces blooming.
