These relaions are obained resolving algebraic equaions of hird and fourh degree respecively.

Our heoreical resuls are compared wih experimenal daa for wo kinds of rubbers and demonsrae very good coincidence. Keywords: rubber, mechanical properies, rheology, large deformaions INTRODUCTION Rubbers are increasingly used in modern indusry [1-4]. Resinous maerials and rubbers are elasoviscous solids. They are very deformable and possess non-linear behaviour. Their creep is also non-linear according o he applied sresses. The las non-lineariy can be observed excluding he ime from he creep curves (he so-called isochrones). Thus, rubbers require idenificaion and descripion of wo differen kinds of nonlineariies. Here we examine wo composiions: he firs one is he Buadienniril rubber (BN) and he oher one - he Polyisoprene rubber (PI) [5]. In he firs rubber composiion is used rubber wih 40% acryloniril in he macromolecule [5]. In he second composiion is used polyisoprene rubber - an analogue of he naural rubber. The microsrucure concise of 1,4 cispolyisoprene wih conen of hese unis almos 98% [5]. Boh elasomeric composiions include fillers (cinders) wih a developed surface respecively 75 and 50 m²/ g. THEORETICAL Nonlinear elaso-viscosiy a small deformaions The herediary linear equaions can be generalized o accoun he nonlinear mechanical behaviour using he Rabonov-Rzanizin approach [6, 7]. This approach requires similariy in he sress - srain curves for differen momens ( ) [ 1 f ( ) K ( τ) dτ] E, (1) * To whom all correspondence should be sen: aleksandrovassucm@gmail.com 0 where ( ) is he srain, - he applied sress, f ( ) - he nonlineariy funcion, K ( - ) - he creep kernel, - he curren ime and 0. Concerning he creep kernel we can say he following. I is he resolving kernel of he relaxaion one. As kernels in he inegral equaions of Volerra like eq. (1) i is recommended o ake singular kernels which beer describe he enhanced creep and relaxaion rae a he beginning. In his work we assume he singular relaxaion kernel of Kolunov [7] e R( ) A, (a) whose resolving kernel (he creep kernel) looks like [7]. e n n K( ) A( ) / ( n ), (b) n1 The funcion of he nonlineariy f ( ) is deermined from he isochrone curves. This presenaion of he nonlineariy involves a coincidence of he iniial poins a he srain scale and requires a similariy of he isochrones. If a low sresses (up o he limi axial sress of he lineariy o ) he behaviour is linear, equaion (1) can be generalized as follows: n ( ) [ 1 ( / o) K( τ) dτ] E () 0 In equaion () n is he poency which can be deermined from he isochrones. Eq. () remains valid if o. In he opposie case he behaviour is linear and / o 1. Such a presenaion of he viscous nonlineariy is used in many pracical problems [8]. 016 Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, Union of Chemiss in Bulgaria 59

2 K. B. Hadjov e al.: Analyic nonlinear elaso-viscosiy of wo ypes of BN and PI rubbers a large deformaions Nonlinear elasiciy a large deformaions Rubbers are very deformable and heir elasic behaviour canno be described by he Hooke s law. Here as elasic behaviour i is mean he insananeous elasiciy of equaion () given by he raio before he brackes. This expression should be changed o be able o accoun he large elasic deformaions of he rubbers. Here i is used he heory of he large deformaions described in [9]. The maerial is considered as isoropic and incompressible. To describe he mechanical behaviour of rubbers and oher resinous maerials as successful models are acceped he neo-hookean and he Mooney-Rivlin ones [9]. According o he above models he following hermodynamic poenials are inroduced G W ( 1 ), (4а) 1 W ( - )( 1 ) (4b) ( 1 1 ) 4 where G is he second module of Young, ζ and χ are experimenally deermined parameers based on he insananeous force-exension curves and i are he large relaive exensions in he main direcions i 1 i. (5a) Here i 1,, and i are he main Cauchy s srains (he classic ones in he case of small displacemens). In he case of incompressible maerials 1 1 and by racion i follows 1/ 1,. (5b) Therefore, o he poenials (4a) and (4b) follows G -1/ W ( ), (6а) 1 ( - )( / ) (1/ W ) (6b) 4 In he heory of large deformaions [9] he axial ensile force is given by he expression dw Q( ) So, (7) d where S o is he iniial secion of he sample associaed wih he curren secion S( ) as So S( ). (8) So, based on equaions (6a), (6b) and (7) o he axial ensile force of highly deformable maerials are obained he following expressions (depending on he relaive exension) concerning boh models respecively 1 Q( ) SoG, (9a) 1 1 Q( ) SoG ( ( 1)) (9b) Relaions (9) mus be expressed hrough he deformaions of Cauchy and replaced in () in order o ake ino accoun he large deformaions. This can be done as follows. Based on eq.(9) is deduced he relaionships insananeous sress-srain concerning boh models which give he nonlineariy in he elasic par of he herediary equaion (). In he case of incompressible maerials beween he insananeous Young modules one has he following relaion E E G (10) (1 ) This is because he Poisson raio is 0.5. Moreover, from equaions (7), (8) here is he relaionship Q( ) Q( ) ( ). (11) S( ) So Then from equaions (9), (10) and (11) i is obained he following relaions sress-elongaion E 1 ( ) (1a) E 1 1 ( ) ( ( 1)) (1b) Equaions (1) may also be represened as a relaion sress-srain according o eq. (5a). These expressions have he form E (1 ) 1 ( ) (1a) 1 E (1 ) 1 1 ( ) ( ( 1)) (1b) 1 (1 ) Equaions (1) should be resolved abou he srains in order o obain he non-linear sress-srain relaion for highly deformable maerials. These equaions are of hird and fourh degree respecively and can be represened in he following form using equaions (1) 1 0, (14a) E 60

Creep a large deformaion of BN For he BN rubber boh models give good resuls. Therefore for BN rubbers i is used he neo- Hookean model. I has he advanage ha i does no require he enire force-displacemen curve o deermine he parameers (he elasic module is sufficien). The PI rubber however, requires he use of he -parameer model of Mooney-Rivlin. Sress-srain curves according o equaions (1a, b) or also o (15a, b) appear as shown in Fig.. The experimenal resuls in figure 1 show ha he neo- Hookean law well describes he insananeous behaviour of he BN rubber bu o he PI rubber should be applied he more flexible model of Mooney-Rivlin. The assumpion of incompressibiliy for he rubbers is perfecly accepable. For our maerials he Poisson s raio values are o he BN rubber and 0.49 o he PI rubber. 6

Hadjov e al.: Analyic nonlinear elaso-viscosiy of wo ypes of BN and PI rubbers a large deformaions The herediary heory wih kernel of Kolunov well describes he emporary effecs due o he viscosiy. CONCLUSION Using he inegral equaions of Volerra o describe he nonlinear elasoviscous behaviour are obained equaions predicing he ime dependen behaviour aking ino accoun he sress-srain nonlineariy. On he basis of he Neo-Hookean and Mooney-Rivlin models concerning he insananeous nonlineariy a large deformaions are derived he respecive srain-sress consiuive relaions in analyical form. Boh Neo-Hookean and Mooney-Rivlin models well describe he insananeous mechanical behaviour a large deformaions for he BN rubber. Concerning he PI rubber, only he Mooney-Rivlin model is able o well predic he sress-srain insananeous consiuive relaion. These srain-sress consiuive relaions are incorporaed in he herediary heory of Volerra o obain he complex ime dependen mechanical behaviour of rubbers a large deformaions. The heoreical predicions show very good coincidence wih he experimenal daa for PI and BN rubbers. REFERENCES 1 N. R. Legge, G. Holden, H. E.
