Abstract
The creep recovery properties of different graphene-doped rubber and the effect of temperature on them were studied. Doping graphene, especially with the surface functional group or surface microstructure, can significantly improve the creep resistance of natural rubber (NR). The permanent creep of each composite tested under the same conditions for 20 min. Graphene oxide, hydrazine hydrate reduced graphene oxide, and 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTS) grafted graphene oxide was 33%, 16%, and 51% lower than those filled with carbon black respectively. Four parameter model and Weibull distribution function used to analyze and evaluate the creep and recovery test results of composite rubber. These curve fitting results can adequately describe the influence of different types of nanofillers on the creep and recovery properties of composite rubber. The long-term creep of composites forecasted by the time-temperature superposition principle (TTSP). The results show that graphene doping can improve the creep resistance of the rubber. Besides, graphene oxide and surface-modified graphene oxide had better creep resistance than reduced graphene oxide filled natural rubber. It can see that the interfacial properties between the graphene sheet and the natural rubber matrix play an essential role in the creep and recovery properties of graphene/natural rubber composites.
