Abstract
The effects of acrylonitrile content in acrylonitrile–butadiene rubber (NBR) on coordination crosslinking reaction were investigated in the system of NBR filled with copper sulfate (CuSO 4) particles by means of dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), equilibrium swelling method, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and tensile test. DMA analysis showed that higher the acrylonitrile content in NBR, higher the storage modulus of the CuSO 4/NBR composite. The results of equilibrium swelling method and DSC displayed the crosslink density and glass transition temperature of CuSO 4/NBR composites increased with increment of the acrylonitrile content, respectively. And the tensile strength of CuSO 4/NBR composites became strong with the acrylonitrile content rising. All the results showed that increase acrylonitrile content of NBR could accelerate the coordination crosslinking reaction between NBR and CuSO 4. The tensile strength of CuSO 4/NBR composites increased with increment of acrylonitrile content, which was attributed to increased interfacial contact area and enhanced interfacial adhesion between CuSO 4 and NBR.
