Title: A Study of Properties of PolyamideButyl Rubber Blends


1
A Study of Properties of Polyamide/Butyl Rubber
Blends
  • J.D. (Jack) Van Dyke
  • Marek Gnatowski
  • Andy Koutsandreas
  • Andrew Burczyk

2
Blending Possibilities
  • Type of butyl rubber (IIR, CIIR, BIIR)
  • Proportion in the blend
  • Non-vulcanized or dynamically vulcanized
  • Vulcanizing agent (S, ZnO/ZDEDC, MgO/ Amine)
  • Type of polyamide
  • Blending conditions
  • Preparation of the sample

3
Polyamide/Butyl Rubber Blends Non-Vulcanized
  • Halogenated butyl rubber - more reactive
  • Graft/block formation during high speed mixing
  • Halogenated butyl rubber more graft/block
  • Evidence of graft/block in extracted samples
  • Presence of polyamide peak by FTIR
  • Microanalysis indicates excess nitrogen present

Tensile Properties of Polyamide 12/ Rubber Blends
- Non-Vulcanized
5
Non-Vulcanization vs. Dynamic Vulcanization
6
Dynamic Vulcanization
7
Rheology of PA/Butyl Rubber Blends Comparison
8
Insolubles Non Vulcanized vs. Dynamically
Vulcanized
9
Polyamide Melting Temperature - Effect of Rubber
Type and Processing
10
Comparison of Tensile Strengths - Non-Vulcanized
and Dynamically Vulcanized
11
Comparison of Elongations - Non-Vulcanized and
Dynamically Vulcanized
12
Effect Molding Procedure on Tensile Properties
for Dynamically-Vulcanized 40/60 PA/Rubber Blends
13
Effect of Rubber Properties on Tensile Strength
for Dynamically Vulcanized 40/60 PA/Rubber Blends
14
Conclusions
  • Compatible blends are formed under high shear
    mixing - both non-vulcanized and vulcanized.
  • Rheology of the blends depends on the method of
    preparation.
  • A sample is more processible at high shear in
    dynamically vulcanized blends.

15
Conclusions
  • 4. For dynamically vulcanized blends, the
    highest tensile and elongation values are
    obtained with CIIR as the blend component.
  • 5. Mechanical properties seem to be affected by
  • a. type of halogen
  • b. Mooney viscosity of the rubber
  • c. method of processing
  • d. not affected by the unsaturation in the
    rubber phase.
