文摘

The present paper is focused on exploiting Plackett–Burman design to examine the formulation effect of various chemical components content on the curing characteristics of oil palm ash (OPA)-filled acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) compound. The filled-NBR compound was prepared by conventional laboratory-sized two roll mill and cured using sulfuric system. Six independent variables such as content of zinc oxide, stearic acid, N-isopropyl-N′-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine, N-cyclohexyl-2-benzothiazole sulfenamide (CBS), sulfur, and even OPA filler were carried out to screen their significant effect on the curing characteristics of NBR compound. The scorch time, optimal cure time, minimum torque, and maximum torque were selected as a response. Results showed that the scorch time and the optimal cure time were significantly affected by CBS, whereas the minimum torque and maximum torque were significantly affected by OPA and sulfur, respectively, within the studied range. Among the chemical components under study, zinc oxide and stearic acid had the least effect on the curing properties of NBR compound. Analysis of variances for all factorial models demonstrated that the model was significant with P value <0.05 while the regularity (R 2) of all models was greater than 0.9. Lastly, the optimal chemical concentrations were predicted to acquire the optimal condition of the curing system for filled-NBR compound.
