Abstract

Background

This study investigates the utilization of furfural raffinate oil (FRO) as a filling agent in rubber vulcanization processes, focusing on its impact on the mechanical properties of various rubber types. The research aims to understand how different amounts of 2 and 4 Raffinate oils affect the vulcanization characteristics of chlorinated polyethylene (CPE), natural rubber (NR), styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), and cis-butadiene rubber (BR).

Methods

Through experimental analysis, the density-temperature relationship of raffinate oils was examined, revealing distinct differences between 2 and 4, which have implications for their composition and properties. The study involved filling CPE rubber with slurry FRO and evaluating the mechanical properties across different samples. Standardized tests were used to assess the physical and mechanical properties of the vulcanized rubber, ensuring quality and performance consistency in rubber products.

Results

The findings show that the CPE rubber filled with slurry FRO exhibits varying mechanical properties across different samples. Changes in tensile strength were observed to enhance mechanical strength, while variations in elongation at break with different oil fillings indicated the impact of oil content on flexibility and stretchability. Additionally, changes in tear strength with varying oil fillings improved the tear resistance and durability of the rubber materials.

Conclusion

These results suggest that the choice of filler oil significantly influences the mechanical properties of vulcanized rubber. The study highlights the potential of furfural raffinate oil as an alternative or complementary option to traditional filling oils in the rubber industry. Exploring novel additives like FRO could optimize rubber properties and applications, offering valuable insights for enhancing the performance and durability of rubber products.
