The mechanism is based on a total interfiller particle force exhibiting an intermittent loop, due to the combination of short-range repulsion and dispersion forces with a long-range elastic attraction. The sum of these forces leads, under external strain, to a spontaneous instability of "bonds" between the aggregates in a filler network and attendant energy dissipation. Here, we use molecular dynamics simulations to obtain chemically realistic forces between surface modified silica particles. The latter are combined with the above model to estimate the loss modulus and the low strain storage modulus in elastomers containing the aforementioned filler-compatibilizer systems. The model is compared to experimental dynamic moduli of silica filled rubbers. We find good agreement between the model predictions and the experiments as function of the compatibilizer's molecular structure and its bulk concentration.}, language = {en} } @book{Pettrak2014, author = {Pettrak, J{\"u}rgen}, title = {Nutzung nachwachsender Rohstoffe bei der Herstellung thermoplastischer Elastomere aus Folgeprodukten der Olefinmetathese}, publisher = {Attenkofer}, address = {Straubing}, isbn = {978-3-942742-35-1}, pages = {147 Seiten}, year = {2014}, language = {de} } @article{RieplPettrakFaulstichetal.2010, author = {Riepl, Herbert Matthias and Pettrak, J{\"u}rgen and Faulstich, Martin and Herrmann, Wolfgang Anton}, title = {Self metathesis of fatty alcohols and amines to provide monomers for polyester and polyamide products}, series = {Macromolecular Symposia}, volume = {293}, journal = {Macromolecular Symposia}, number = {1}, publisher = {Wiley-VCH}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {1521-3900 (eISSN)}, doi = {10.1002/masy.200900041}, pages = {39 -- 42}, year = {2010}, abstract = {Self metathesis of oleochemicals offers a variety of bifunctional compounds, that can be used as monomer for polymer production.
