Abstract

This paper presents the results of an investigation into the potential application of Natural rubber (NR) containing Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) and Carbonyl Iron Powder (CIP) by measuring its shear modulus and damping ratio. Rubber bearings containing natural rubber have been used for isolation of structure from external vibration like earthquake. The properties of damping ration and shear modulus were determined using double shear test pieces. Four types of rubber compounds were mixed accordingly with different CNTs and CIP loadings. It is observed that the shear modulus and damping ratio of CNTs filled rubber composites are remarkably higher than that of raw rubber indicating the inherent reinforcing potential of CNTs.
