Effect of third monomer (different dienes) on the cure characteristics, structures, properties, stability, fracture mechanism of melt-mixed blends of EPDM rubber and thermoplastic EVA copolymer are studied over the entire composition range in presence of Dicumyl Peroxide (DCP) as the curative 1, 4 HD containing EPDM has the decreasing effect on the ultimate extent of curing the blends up to around 50% of EVA and then slightly increases; however, ENB has just opposite effect on the state of cure. But increasing effect was observed in case of DCPD containing EPDM. Presence of DCPD decreases the scorch safety as EPDM/EVA ratio decreases. Up to 40% EVA scorch time increases and then decreases at higher level for 1, 4 HD. For ENB containing EPDM the scorch time initially decreases, then increases and remains constant at higher level. Activation energy of all the blends for 1, 4 HD and ENB containing EPDMs and EVA lie in between that of pure EPDM and EVA. But it is true up to 40% of EVA loading in case of DCPD containing EPDM. 1, 4 HD contribute least and DEPD contribute to a greater extent than ENB towards the interfacial adhesion, it seems. At a particular EPDM/EVA blend ratio, 1, 4 HD-containing EPDM suffer greater weight loss than DCPD and ENB containing EPDMs. SEM study suggests the different modes of failure depending on diene content of EPDM as also confirmed by X-ray analysis. |
