D. Hauck et al., NMR IMAGING OF TECHNICAL SBR VULCANIZATES UNDER DYNAMIC-MECHANICAL LOAD, Macromolecular chemistry and physics, 198(9), 1997, pp. 2729-2742
Inhomogeneous heating of carbon-black filled SBR (styrene-co-butadiene
rubber) cylinders was mapped by NMR imaging in situ during dynamic me
chanical load. The linear relationship between T-2 and temperature was
used for direct imaging of temperature profiles. Experiments were per
formed as a function of shear frequency between 0 and 10 Hz and of car
bon black contents between 10 and 70 phr (parts per hundred rubber). F
or a composite cylinder with a hard core and a soft shell an unexpecte
d heat distribution was observed.
