Abstract

AbstractThe dielectric constant ϵ′ and dielectric loss ϵ″ have been investigated for SBR samples vulcanized with TMTD and loaded with silica in increasing quantities in the frequency range from 60 Hz to 108 Hz at room temperature. Also, the physico‐mechanical properties of these samples have been investigated.The results of ϵ′ and ϵ″ are analysed using the Cole—Cole method. Two absorption regions are found: a low frequency absorption region with a maximum at about 10 kHz which is attributed to Maxwell—Wagner effect and a high frequency absorption region with a maximum at 107 Hz which is due to the orientation of polar groups. A third absorption region appeared at frequencies below 100 Hz and may be due to absorption of moisture arising from the presence of silica in the sample.
