Abstract

The effect of variation of high abrasion furnace black (HAF) content on the elastic behavior of butyl rubber (IIR) vulcanizates has been studied by carrying out equilibrium stress–strain measurements at different working temperatures for these vulcanizates. Young's modulus, yield stress and tensile elongation at break of these composites have been studied as a function of both HAF content and working temperature. The Mooney–Rivlin relation was used to elucidate the behavior of the rubber matrix, and the constants C1 and C2 have been calculated by the use of the strain-amplification factor.
