Abstract

Samples of polymer blends (NR/SBR/rubber granulate) are prepared by compressing in a laboratory press. Determining the rheological properties of the samples was performed on a rheometer and munimetru. NR/SBR/rubber granulate blends are characterized by determination of mechanical properties (tensile strength, elongation, further scoring, hardness and repulsive elasticity). Results showed that addition of the filler (the rubber granules) has an effect on the mechanical and rheological properties of all the samples. The samples prepared with a higher amount of added rubber granules show a reduction of rheological and mechanical properties in comparison to the sample prepared without rubber granulates.

Keywords
