in this study an empirical model which can be used to predict the rutting parameter (g*/sinδ) for neat and powder rubber modified bitumen describes. the model was developed using 36 unique powder rubber modified bitumen combinations, rubber concentrations were varied at 5% intervals between 5 and 20%. the effects of powder rubber particle size on model accuracy were also studied ultimately a mo...

In the paper, influence of modified Angren kaolin on properties composite elastomeric materials based butadiene-styrene rubber has been established that addition into mixtures instead gas pedals, activators and mineral fillers causes intensive connection sulfur with macromolecules. Adsorbed surface particles its uniform distribution in composition formation structure equal force were determined...

Although the typical antioxidant, N-(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-N′-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine (6PPD), ensures high durability and long lifespan for rubber compounds, it generates a highly toxic quinone in water, causing serious environmental pollution. Herein, as an alternative material of 6PPD, we newly introduce eco-friendly amine-functionalized lignin (AL) to be incorporated rubber, which can provide...

When introducing self-healing properties to elastomers, it is often difficult balance their ability recover after damage with a good mechanical strength prior damage. We demonstrate that by replacing the activator system used in conventional accelerated vulcanization (CV) chemistry, from traditional zinc oxide (ZnO) and stearic acid complex formed between ω-propenyl functional oligomers of poly...
