Abstract
In this paper, we report the results of a study using finite element method (FEM) simulation on the relationship between the morphology and physical properties of a filler-filled blended rubber. In the blended rubber of styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) and isoprene rubber (IR), the distributability of the silica fillers of both phases is different. As a result, when the blend ratio is changed, the effective filling amount of the filler in each rubber phase fluctuates, a difference in the reinforcing effect occurs, and the mechanical property value of the blended rubber changes discontinuously.
