Abstract

EPDM, IIR, and BIIR composites were thermally aged and the crosslink density changes were investigated. Crosslink densities of the EPDM composite increased with increasing the aging time and temperature, whereas those of IIR and BIIR composites for long-term aging at high temperatures tended to decrease. Activation energies for the crosslink density changes of the EPDM composite were higher than those of the BIIR one. The experimental results were explained with the number of allylic hydrogens, activation of the zinc complex, the steric hindrance effect, and oxidation of rubber chain.

EPDM, IIR, 그리고 BIIR 복합체를 열노화시켜 가교밀도 변화를 조사하였다. 노화 시간이 증가하거나 노화온도가 올라갈수록 EPDM 복합체의 가교밀도는 증가하였으나, 고온에서 장기간 노화된 IIR과 BIIR 복합체의 가교밀도는 감소하는 경향을 보였다. EPDM 복합체의 가교밀도 변화에 대한 활성화 에너지는 BIIR 복합체보다 높았다. 실험결과는 알릴 수소의 수, 아연 복합체의 활성화, 입체 가리움 효과, 그리고 고무 사슬의 산화로 설명하였다.
