BACKGROUND Concerns about the possible toxic effects of workplace exposures in the synthetic rubber industry have centered on 1,3-butadiene (BD), styrene and dimethyldithiocarbamate (DMDTC). Our previous mortality studies of over 17,000 male synthetic rubber workers found an excess of leukemia that may be due to BD or BD plus other chemicals. Experimental studies have shown that BD produces mam...

Moisture management and postdrying are crucial for Li‐ion battery lifetime performance as well overall energy efficiency of electrode production. An optimization these processes by a fundamental comprehension sorption mass transport mechanisms in the holds potential to increase sustainability this technology. The composition electrodes determines which govern interaction with water from atmosph...

An experimental and numerical study on the mechanical damping properties of styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) composites with graphene nanoparticles (GNP) carbon black (CB) is presented in this paper. The were tested for such as hardness tensile strength. It observed that GNP & CB fillers have higher stiffness percentage elongation failure. A scale model chassis was subjected to forced vibrati...

this paper deals with the interfacial effects of silica fume (sf) and styrene-butadiene polymer (sbr) on compressive strength of concrete. analyzing the compressive strength results of 32 concrete mixes performed over two water-binder ratios (0.35, 0.45), four percentages replacement of silica fume (0%, 5%, 7.5%, 10%) and four percentages of sbr (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%) were investigated. a mathemati...

Abstract The flow curves of polymers often reveal the onset melt instabilities such as sharkskin, stick–slip, or gross fracture, in order increasing shear rates. focus this work lies application Göttfert sharkskin option to investigation styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) compounds. consists highly sensitive pressure transducers located inside a slit die capillary rheometer. This tool allows detect...

The combination of two different binders: styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) and polyacrylic acid (PAA), in with carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) has been investigated for aqueous electrode preparation LiNi0.83Co0.12Mn0.05O2 positive electrodes. use Ni-rich active materials Li-ion batteries is becoming industry standard, however, such cathode are sensitive to water, which makes the manufacturing especi...

Ceramifiable styrene-butadiene (SBR)-based composites containing low-softening-point-temperature glassy frit promoting ceramification, precipitated silica, one of four thermally stable refractory fillers (halloysite, calcined kaolin, mica or wollastonite) and a sulfur-based curing system were prepared. Kinetics of vulcanization and basic mechanical properties were analyzed and added as Suppleme...
