Abstract

Waste tire powder (WTP) was reclaimed mechanically in presence of a new composite additive which consists of reinforcing materials (RM) and toughening materials (TM), and the effects of technical parameters and additives were investigated. According to the orthogonal experiments and the range analysis, the final ranking of the significance of factors in tensile properties was determined to be as follows: TM content > curing temperature > sulfur content > TBBS content > RM content (for tensile strength) and sulfur content > curing temperature > TBBS content > TM content > RM content (for elongation at break). The optimal conditions for tensile strength and elongation at break were determined respectively. Tensile strength and elongation at break tended to decrease after an initial ascent with the RM content increased. An apparent ascent of elongation at break was observed as TM content increases. Tensile strength increased first, and then decreased.
