Characterization of FeCo Nanoparticles Reinforced Natural Rubber using Nanomechanical Mapping
The morphology, nanomechanical properties and interfacial regions of natural rubber (NR) and FeCo nanoparticles composite were determined by AFM nanomechanical mapping. The results showed that the size of FeCo particles was mostly from 40 to 100 nm and the FeCo nanoparticles were homogeneously dispersed in the NR bulk. The strength of NR composite increased with the FeCo nanoparticles loading. Young’s modulus of NR region, FeCo region and interfacial region was measured by AFM nanomechanical tapping as 1.6 ± 0.6, 16.7 ±4.2 and 5.8 ± 1.5 MPa, respectively. The width of the interface for NR5, NR10 and NR15 was determined to be 15±8.1, 26±14.3 and 32±16.4 nm, respectively.
