- Abstract
Herein, the mechanical behavior of a graphene‐recycled rubber compound is investigated by performing static and dynamic tests. Water‐based graphene suspension is deposited on recycled rubber pads via an electrostatic addition process. Results on tensile and compression tests indicate a significant improvement of the compound in strength and in damping. They also indicate that the compound experiences significant elongation (up to 500%) as well as withstands high tensile forces, 300% greater than the force that the recycled rubber mix would withstand. The effective compression modulus of the compound is also shown to increase by about 3.2 times at 10% strain with respect to the one for the recycled rubber mix. Results suggest that the graphene‐recycled rubber compound can deliver a sustainable solution for vibration mitigation applications.
