Molecular Layer Deposition (MLD) of a Blocked Mercapto Silane on Precipitated Silica

open access: yesOrganic Materials, 2023
Chemically modified silica is widely used as a reinforcing filler in elastomers. The modification is generally done in situ while preparing the rubber. However, in order to increase the efficiency and facilitate the mixing process, the silica can be pre ...

Characterization of Counter-Surface Substrates for a Laboratory Abrasion Tester (LAT100) Compared with Asphalt and Concrete to Predict Car Tire Performance

open access: yesLubricants, 2022
Tire performance is determined based on the interaction between the tire and the road as a counter-surface, and is of the utmost importance for driving safety.

Parameter optimization for a laboratory friction tester to predict tire ABS braking distance using design of experiments

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2020
Predicting tire friction in a laboratory environment is a complicated issue. Varying one factor at the time for experimenting to obtain insight into tire friction does not necessarily provide a proper judgment.

Network formation of low molecular weight ‘liquid’ polymers studied by gel permeation chromatography and stress-strain analysis according to Mooney-Rivlin

open access: yesPolymer Testing, 2023
The rheological and mechanical properties of elastomers are defined by their different networks: The crosslink network and the filler network. The crosslink network is influenced by the polymer structure.

On the various roles of 1,3-DIPHENYL Guanidine in silica/silane reinforced sbr/br blends

open access: yesPolymer Testing, 2021
The aim of this study was to evaluate the various roles of 1,3-DiPhenyl Guanidine (DPG) in silica-reinforced rubber compounds. Two roles of DPG are well known to be: adsorption onto silica surface to reduce the acidic sites and second to boost the ...

Effect of mold temperature on the impact behavior and morphology of injection molded foams based on polypropylene polyethylene–octene copolymer blends [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Producción CientíficaIn this work, an isotactic polypropylene (PP) and a polyethylene–octene copolymer (POE) have been blended and injection-molded, obtaining solids and foamed samples with a relative density of 0.76.

Effect of SBR/BR elastomer blend ratio on filler and vulcanization characteristics of silica filled tire tread compounds

open access: yesPolymer Testing, 2021
The effect of the SBR/BR blend ratio on marching modulus – no-plateau torque profile in vulcametry – of a silica filled tire tread compound is investigated.

Synthesis and characterisation of pyrene-labelled polydimethylsiloxane networks: towards the in situ detection of strain in silicone elastomers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Pyrene-substituted polyhydromethylsiloxanes (PHMS-Py-x) were synthesised by the hydrosilylation reaction of prop-3-enyloxymethylpyrene with polyhydromethylsiloxane (M-n = 3700). The ratio of pyrene substituent to Si-H unit was varied to afford a range of

The mechanisms of pedestrian slip on flooring contaminated with solid particles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Statistics by the UK Health and Safety Executive (HSE) suggest that slips, trips and falls account for up to one in three major workplace accidents. The vast majority of these accidents are the result of contaminant (fluid or solid) within the shoe-floor
