Abstract
Abstract 1. Evaluation of ∫σdδ where σ is the net section stress and δ is the deformed crack tip diameter requires only one specimen to characterize the initiation of crack growth in unfilled and carbon-black-filled NR. 2. ∫σdδ is equal to one half of the J-integral for crack growth initiation, which is identical to the Thomas tearing energy for a blunt notch. 3. The critical J-integral for crack initiation increases linearly with carbon black content. 4. The critical crack tip radius for crack initiation is independent of carbon black content, and the required crack tip region stress increases linearly with carbon black content.
