Polymer-diamond composites based on detonation nanodiamonds. Part 2

The paper shows the influence of diamond-containing mixture and detonation nanodiamonds on the physical-mechanical properties of polymer composites based on polyisoprene, butadiene-styrene, and polysiloxane rubbers. Adding a diamond-containing mixture is demonstrated to endow the composites with high strength and fatigue endurance indices. The cohesive strength is improved by a factor of 1.3–2.0 and the tearing strength is almost doubled. The use of composite nanodispersed fillers with a diamond-containing mixture in polysiloxane results in almost 1.7 times higher strength parameters.
