Elongation mechanisms elastomeric networks

In the simplest study of this type, Al-ghamdi and Mark [138] studied reinforcement of PDMS by two zeolites of different pore sizes. The zeolites were a zeolite 3A (pore diameter 3 A) and a zeolite 13X (pore diameter 10 A), both with a cubic crystalline structure. They were simply blended into hydroxyl-terminated chains of PDMS which were subsequently end-linked with tetraethoxysilane to form an elastomeric network. These elastomers were studied by equilibrium stress-strain measurements in elongation at 25°C. Both zeolites increased the modulus and related mechanical properties of the elastomer, but the effect was larger for the zeolite with the larger pore size. [Pg.234]

More recently, it has been theoretically predicted by Brand [81] that elastomeric networks that have chiral nematic or smectic C mesophases should have piezoelectric properties. The non-centro-symmetric material responds to the deformation via a piezoelectric response. Following this prediction, both Finkelmann and Zental have reported the observation of piezoelectricity. In one case, a nematic network was converted to the cholesteric form with the addition of CB15, 2 -(2-methylbutyl)biphenyl-4-carbonitrile [82]. By producing a monodomain, it is possible to measure the electro-mechanical or piezoelectric response. Compression leads to a piezoelectric coefficient parallel to the helical axis. Elongation leads to the perpendicular piezoelectric response. As another example, a network with a chiral smectic C phase that possesses ferroelectric properties can also act as a piezoelectric element [83]. Larger values of this response might be observed if crosslinked in the Sc state. [Pg.284]

Elastomers cured with two crosslinking systems such as sulphur and the polymerisation products of p-benzoquinone are shown to have much improved overall mechanical properties. Non-Gaussian behaviour of quinone polymer crosslinked elastomers viewed as bimodal networks was studied. The study focused on the effect of ageing time on the reduced stress values of the networks in relation to the elongation of the samples. The study is also extended to cover the possible effect of these bound antioxidants on the onset of the vulcanisation process and the hardness values of the elastomeric networks. 15 refs. [Pg.119]
