Static and Dynamic Strain-Dependent Viscoelastic Behavior of Black-Filled EPDM Vulcanizates
The strain dependence of the dynamic mechanical properties of HAF-N330-filled EPDM vulcanizate was studied using a Rheovibron DDV III EP. It is shown that when a dynamic strain is superposed on a static strain, the viscoelastic response of filled rubbers becomes more complex. Under these conditions, dynamic mechanical properties do not correlate with the double strain amplitude. A strain called the "total strain" has been defined in order to interpret the experimental results. It is also shown that the dynamic mechanical properties are displacement velocity dependent, while the comparison is made under identical conditions of strain and frequency. Separability of time and strain effects is observed for the storage modulus, whereas the loss modulus is shown to be a nonseparable function. The elastic and the relaxation components, constituting the mixed function representing the storage modulus are shown to have similar deformation dependence.
