Blends of acrylonitrile butadiene rubber/high density polyethylene (NBR/HDPE) compatibilized by Chloroprene rubber (CR) were prepared. A fixed quantity of industrial waste such as marble waste (MW, 40 phr) was also included. The effect of the blend ratio and CR on cure characteristics, mechanical and swelling properties of MW-filled NBR/HDPE blends was investigated. The results showed that the ...

The introduction of high molecular weight poly(methyI methacrylate) or poly(butadiene-co-acrylonitrile) into ethyl 2-cyanoacrylate produced viscous adhesives with a homogeneous or heterogeneous structure after cure. Steel joints bonded with these adhesives are shown to have improved tensile shear strength, deformability and stress relaxation of bonds compared with pure cyanoacrylate adhesive. P...

Hydrogen molecules dissolved in rubber due to high-pressure hydrogen gas exposure have been analyzed using 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) with solution and solid-state probes. To analyze the characteristics of dissolved hydrogen in rubber materials and to compare them with gaseous phase hydrogen, we measured the NMR spectra of gaseous phase hydrogen and evaluated the chemical shifts and pr...
