Abstract

The influence of silica fillers with different specific surface areas on the technological and operational properties of protective elastomer compositions has been studied. It has been established that compositions with a more highly dispersed silicic acid filler have a 10% higher Mooney viscosity and a higher dispersing ability in the elastomeric matrix (the complex dynamic modulus characterizing the Payne effect is reduced to 10%) compared to a sample containing a filler with a lower dispersion of equivalent dosage. It was determined that, with equal filling, tread rubber with a filler with greater dispersion is characterized by increased nominal stress at 300% elongation (by 21%), wear resistance, and dry road adherence (mechanical loss tangent values measured at –60 and +20°C, an increase by 21 and 11%, respectively). It was revealed that reducing the dosage of highly dispersed filler leads to the production of vulcanizates with greater elasticity and lower rolling losses while maintaining other car handling parameters.
