Abstract

Biaxial cyclic tests of elastomeric composites filled with granular nanoparticles (carbon black and detonation nanodiamonds), nanoplates (few-layer nanographene) and nanofibers (multi-walled carbon nanotubes) have been carried out. The experiments were carried out on Zwick/Roell's unique four-vector test stand using special fan-type cruciform specimens. Studies have shown that carbon nanotubes have the greatest influence on the change in the mechanical properties of a material during cyclic deformation in mutually perpendicular directions. It is they, due to their length and flexibility, that most effectively partic-ipate in the restructuring of the microstructure, thereby forming the macroscopic behavior of the material.
