Abstract |
Silicone rubber room temperature vulcanization (RTV) is widely used as an insulator.
This paper aims to improve the electrical and mechanical properties of RTV with organic filler from
golden apple snail shells. The processed golden apple snail shells have the particle size of 75 μm.
Specimen were made from silicone rubber with an addition of organic filler and inorganic filler for
tested under ASTM D638-2a standard. The filler ratio was varying from 0 to 50% by weight with
incremental of 5%. Experimental results showed that, there were good agreement in threshold of
electrical and mechanical properties. RTV with the organic filler ratio of 40% out performed the
inorganic filler in electrical aspect. Tensile strength of RTV was found to be increased when 5%
addition of organic filler is used and decreases steadily as this filler is increased. The amount of
filler has greater contribution to the hardness property of the RTV and it may become brittle when it
is used in excessive amount. |
