Technological process for production of optimally dispersed carbon nanotube reinforced rubber (11 MK 82EY 3NRD)
Popis:
A small Macedonian company with main occupation in production of raw rubber and rubber goods, interested in development of new products based on carbon nanotube reinforcement elastomers, is looking for a partner (research institute, university, company) for transfer of know-how for development of new technological processes for production of optimally dispersed carbon nanotube reinforced rubber.
Carbon nanotube-reinforced elastomers are of particular interest in the field of material science. The addition of carbon nano-tubes sensibly increases the mechanical, electrical, thermal stability, inflammability and tribological properties of elastomer matrices.
There are some critical issues that have to be exceeded in order to attain optimum reinforcement:
1. The nonuniform dispersion of nanoreinforcements within the elastomer matrix.
2. The increase of the viscosity of the compounds due to the nanofiller high aspect ratio.
3. The lack of control of the alignment or orientation of carbon nano-tubes in the resulting composites.
At present, the improvements in the properties are far below the expected values for nanometer scale reinforcement due to the poor dispersion and lack of interaction of filler/polymer at the interface.
Further work is required to develop production techniques to achieve the nanostructuration level required to fully exploit the inherent properties of nanoscaled materials.
Technical Specifications / Specific technical requirements:
Development of Technological process for production of optimally dispersed elastomer/carbon nano-tubes composites trough:" Optimization of the processing conditions." Development of original processing routes to produce elastomer/ carbon nano-tubes composites." Selection of appropriate functionalizations of carbon nano-tubes for their integration in elastomer matrix." Optimization of the processes and choice of appropriate type of process.
Requested Cooperation: Joint further development, Testing of new applications, Adaptation to specific needs, Transfer of knowledge in new raw materials
- Type of partner sought: Institute, University, Industrial enterprise.
- Specific area of activity of the partner: Elastomer technology and engineering.
- Task to be performed by the partner sought: Transfer of know-how for development of new technological processes for production of optimally dispersed carbon nanotube reinforced rubber.
