The effect of filler on the mechanical properties of an elastomer at high strain rates

  • Published:
Rheologica Acta Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Results are presented which show the effect of filler size and content on the stress-strain curves of an elastomer at high strain rates. An equation is proposed for the prediction of the apparent increase in modulus of an elastomer due to the addition of rigid spherical particles.

Zusammenfassung

Die dargestellten Ergebnisse zeigen den Einfluß von Korngröße und Gehalt des Füllstoffes auf das Spannungsdehnungsdiagramm eines Elastomers unter hohen Dehnungsgeschwindigkeiten. Eine Gleichung für die Voraussagung der anscheinenden Erhöhung des Elastizitätskoffizienten des Elastomers durch den Einschluß von starren kugelförmigen Körnern wird vorgeschlagen.
