Contribution of Carbon Black to Thermal Conductivity of Natural Rubber

摘要

Eight kinds of carbon black filled natural rubber composites were prepared, and thermal conductivity was studied. Acetylene black contributes much to the thermal conductivity of rubber, and tiny loading results in considerable improvement. The conductive carbon black 40B2 is advantageous for the improvement in thermal conductivity of rubber when its loading reaches middle level, and at its middle level, also tiny loading results in much improvement. Most kinds of carbon black for rubber application filled rubber composites have good properties except for N134 and N660, especially the poor contribution of N660. Additionally, in the case of carbon black filled rubber composites, addition of filler may not necessarily benefit the thermal conductivity when filler loading is not much.
