Research on Friction and Wear Properties of Rubber Composites by Adding Glass Fiber during Mixing

Abstract

GF/rubber composites have sound insulation characteristics, heat resistance, good corrosion resistance, and high mechanical strength. The compounding machine’s long working hours will inevitably wear the metal on the end face of the compounding machine. The wear of the end face metal will increase the gap between the chamber and the end face, which will lead to material leakage, reduce the mixing effect, and eventually affect the performance of GF/rubber composites. To ensure the implementation of GF/rubber composites, it is necessary to study the frictional wear behavior of GF/rubber composites on metals. In this paper, the effect of blending rubber with different amounts of GF on the frictional wear of metal on the end face was analyzed from the perspective of the formulation process, and the ratio of corrosion wear and abrasive wear was calculated for the first time.

Effects of the etching process on the surface, friction and wear characteristics of silicone rubber coated with micro-sized ceramic particles

“…Particularly, silicone rubber exhibits distinct friction and wear characteristics compared to other materials. 7 These characteristics are primarily influenced by the rubber's elastic modulus and the van der Waals forces at the surface, especially at the contact area with the counterpart material. 8 In the case of silicone rubber, strong adhesive bonds are formed at the contact interface, and the force required to break these bonds during sliding contributes to significant friction.…”

Assessment of the Influence of Protective Polymer Coating on Panda Fiber Performance Based on the Results of Multivariant Numerical Simulation

“…The study of tribological properties of materials has been and remains a relevant topic for scientists in various fields [21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28]. In order to reduce the level of friction force magnitude, various modifications are introduced in the material composition [24][25][26], lubricants are used [27], etc. [28].…”
