Cavity Approach to the Random Solid State

, 2005
The cavity approach is used to address the physical properties of random solids in equilibrium. Particular attention is paid to the fraction of localized particles and the distribution of localization lengths characterizing their thermal motion.

Study on the structure-properties relationship of natural rubber/SiO2 composites modified by a novel multi-functional rubber agent [PDF]

, 2014
Vulcanization property and structure-properties relationship of natural rubber (NR)/silica (SiO2) composites modified by a novel multi-functional rubber agent, N-phenyl- N'-(γ-triethoxysilane)-propyl thiourea (STU), are investigated in detail.

Finite Element Modeling of a Thermoplastic Polyurethane Ball for Rolling Seismic Isolation

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Elastomeric‐Ball Pendulum (EBP) system, which consists of an elastomeric ball rolling on a spherical concrete surface, has been proposed as an isolation system for lightweight structures. Experimental tests have shown that the mechanics of such a rolling ball are remarkably complicated because the vertical load changes the shape of the ...

Beeswax: Food and beyond

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Honeybees (Apis mellifera L.) are an important class of insects that are the most beneficial in terms of economy. Beeswax is the second most important bee products after honey. Its commercial importance is due to its antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory and antiseptic as well as regenerative properties.

Connecting the vulcanization transition to percolation

, 2001
The vulcanization transition is addressed via a minimal replica-field-theoretic model. The appropriate long-wave-length behavior of the two- and three-point vertex functions is considered diagrammatically, to all orders in perturbation theory, and ...

Latex Serum‐Derived Supramolecular Networks Enable Toughening of Natural Rubber

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Latex‐serum addition enhances strain‐induced crystallization (SIC) toughening in natural rubber, increasing tearing strength and extending the SIC activation window. Supramolecular networks form via bifurcated hydrogen bonding between polyol components (e.g., quebrachitol) and end‐functionalized polyisoprene chains, serving as effective crystallization

Micro-structural evolution of rubber/clay nanocomposites with vulcanization process

eXPRESS Polymer Letters, 2011
Brominated isobutyl-isoprene rubber/clay nanocomposite (BIIRCN) and ethylene-propylene-diene-monomer rubber/clay nanocomposite (EPDMCN) were prepared by melt blending. The micro-structural evolution of these two kinds of rubber/clay nanocomposites (RCNs)
