We have used positron annihilation Doppler broadening spectroscopy to investigate the effects of filling various rubber polymers with different amounts and types of carbon blacks. The results show direct correlation between ...

Thick-target bremsstrahlung measurements were obtained for various atomic numbers and for energies between 10 and 25 keV. A Jeol JSM 6100 scanning electron microscope was used for the electron beam and a Oxford Instruments ...

Lifetime spectroscopy has been used to investigate different grades of carbon black (CB) and silica mixed into a variety of rubbers as a function of CB or silica loading. The spectra were analyzed into three lifetimes. The ...
