Dough moulding compound reinforced silicone rubber insulating composites using polymerized styrene butadiene rubber as a compatibilizer

Abstract

Dough moulding compound (DMC) reinforced polymerized styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) / methyl vinyl silicone rubber (MVQ) composites were prepared, in which MVQ was matrix, DMC was a reinforcement phase and SBR was a compatibilizer. Dynamic thermomechanical analysis (DMA), infrared spectrum analysis (IR) and the effect of SBR and DMC content on mechanical properties, electrical insulating property and compatibility of the composites were investigated. The results showd that the morphology and thermal properties of the composites were improved when dough moulding compound was used as a reinforcement, and styrene butadiene rubber was compatibilizer, and had excellent insulating property with volume resistivity above 4.8×1012 Ω·m.
