Figure 6

Effect of CB loading on tensile stress versus strain behavior at 23 °C (a) and its derivative (slope; modulus (E)) for CB-filled SBR plotted versus linear strain (b) and logarithmic strain (c). Unitless strain (not %) used when determining E. Also shown is strain amplitude dependence of dynamic storage modulus (E’) at 60 °C and 10 Hz (d). Each blue dashed-line box has the same dimensions in both (c) and (d) to allow comparisons of the strain-induced softening (Payne effect). Results are replotted from Warasitthinon and Robertson [11].
