The swelling and tribological behaviors of nitrile-butadience(NBR) rubbers with three acrylonitrile contents(N18,N26 and N41) in water with different CO 2 gas flows are investigated by immersion and wear experimen...The swelling and tribological behaviors of nitrile-butadience(NBR) rubbers with three acrylonitrile contents(N18,N26 and N41) in water with different CO 2 gas flows are investigated by immersion and wear experiments.The results show that the bubbles of CO 2 into water severely destroy the cross-linking network of rubber and form defects on the surface,such as cracks,holes and lamellar perks.These defects lead to an increase in the static and dynamic swelling increment.The dynamic swelling increment is almost three or four times larger than the static swelling increment.The hardness and wear resistance of rubbers in water with CO 2 gas remarkably decreases in contrast to that in water,and they gradually decrease with an increase in the gas flow in water.The bubbles of CO 2 decrease the steady frictional coefficient of rubber in water due to the presence of the gas in water lubricant film.The steady frictional coefficient in water with different CO 2 gas flow basically remains 0.1.N41 with high acrylonitrile content shows better swelling and wear resistances than N18 and N26 because of its dense molecular network.展开更多
