Dynamic mechanical properties of chlorinated butyl rubber blends

摘要

The binary blends are prepared by chlorinated butyl rubber (CIIR) and 3,9-bis[1,1-dimethyl-2{beta-(3-tert-butyl-4-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl)propionyloxy}ethyl]-2, 4, 8,10-tetraoxaspiro[5,5]-undecane (AO-80), which are investigated by dynamic mechanical analysis and thermal analysis. It is shown that CIIR/AO-80 blends clearly exhibit two kinds of relaxations, which are attributed to the relaxation of CIIR-rich matrix and AO-80-rich domains, respectively, and attenuated total reflection (ATR)-FTIR spectrum indicates that the existence of intermolecular hydrogen bonds between AO-80 and CIIR. When AO-80 is replaced by petroleum resins, only one loss peak appears, and the position of it is related to the softening point and the content of the petroleum resin. In order to regulate the damping property of CIIR/petroleum resin blend, the ternary blend of CIIR/petroleum resin/AO-80/is prepared and a second peak appears at higher temperature indicating that a good damping material is obtained.
