| Popis: | In this work, the effects of using feldspar (FLD) as an alumina-silicate inorganic filler, with carbon black (CB) as a novel binary filler system, on the properties of SBR compounds were investigated for tire applications. The bis(triethoxysilylpropyl) disulfide (TESPD) was used for modification of FLD. The SBR hybrid composites were produced by replacing 10 phr of CB filler with neat FLD and functionalized FLD (F-FLD). The TESPD was added directly to the rubber mixture including neat FLD. The SBR composite which has only CB filler (50CB) was found to have the highest damping parameter (tan δ) value at 60°C. On the other hand, the composites loaded with the CB and the FLD fillers exhibited relatively lower tan δ at the same temperature showing lower rolling resistance meaning better fuel saving performance. The lowest rolling resistance was achieved for the 40CB-10F-FLD most probably due to its stronger interaction with the SBR elastomer molecules through the silane agent-assisted crosslinks of the F-FLD. As another dynamic property, the storage moduli at −20°C were found to be lower for the SBR hybrid composites as compared to that of the 50CB composite, exhibiting enhanced winter traction performance of the composites having FLD filler together with CB. The composites containing only 10 phr of FLD and F-FLD, on the other hand, exhibited very low tensile strength values which are not acceptable for tire tread materials. |
