Abstract
En 中文
Composites were prepared by dispersing spherical, irregular, and platelet-like nano-Al2O3 particles in NBR matrix by mechanical blending, with filler contents set at 0, 5, 10, and 15 phr. In this study, curing, mechanical, and tribological properties were tested to explore the impacts of particle shape. Irregular nano-Al2O3 most effectively enhanced the tensile strength and hardness of NBR composites, with the maximum tensile strength of 19.69 MPa at 10 phr. The sample containing platelet-like nano-Al2O3 at 10 phr exhibited the lowest compression stress relaxation ratio of 25.6%, and the 15 phr platelet-like one showed the minimum compression set rate of 23.15%. Tribological test results show that the addition of irregular nano-Al2O3 significantly reduced the worn volume. NBR material with 10 phr nano-Al2O3 exhibited the minimum worn volume, with a worn loss reduction of 36.81% compared with NBR base compound. In contrast, spherical nano-Al2O3 greatly reduced the friction coefficient (COF). The average COF of the NBR sample containing 15 phr spherical nano-Al2O3 particles achieved the lowest steady average COF, which was 25.17% lower than that of the NBR base compound. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of the worn morphology reveal that irregular nano-Al2O3 rendered the worn surface smoother and significantly diminished abrasive wear. This study highlights the vital role of nanoparticle shape in regulating the mechanical and tribological properties of rubber composites.
