Title
A study of carbon black distribution and properties in BR/NBR blends: Roles of commercial homogenizer and slipping agent
Effects of commercial processing aids, Struktol NS60 (hydrocarbon resin) homogenizer and Struktol WB16 (a mixture of metal salt and a fatty acid amide) slipping agent on the distribution of carbon black and physical properties in BR/NBR blends have been investigated. It was found that Struktol 60NS and Struktol WB16 in blend systems migrate preferentially to BR phase due to the strong interaction between Stuktol and BR phase, leading to a decrease in viscosity of BR phase and thus an increase in carbon black residing in BR phase. Mechanical properties of unfilled compounds are strongly affected by blend ratio and loading of processing aids. However, in the case of filled compounds, the influence of carbon black distribution in each phase of the blends override those blend ratio and additive loading effects.
