Abstract
ABSTRACTIn the present study, silica nanoparticles and polypropylene fibers were added to silicone rubber matrix and their effect was investigated on the viscoelastic behavior of silicone rubber composites by dynamic mechanical analysis and compression set test. Bonding of the reinforcements with silicone rubber matrix was studied by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The results proved that the role of silica particles on the elastic modulus of silicone rubber was more effective than that of polypropylene at room temperature because of higher stiffness and also partial interaction of polypropylene with matrix.
