A wide variety of non-black fillers for rubber exist. Today, the
principal non-black fillers are clays, precipitated silicas and calcium
carbonates. Other major fillers include mica, talc, zinc oxide, magnesium
carbonate, magnesium oxide, titanium oxide, barites and many others. Short
fibres of aramid, carbon, glass, nylon or polyester, are also widely used in
rubber compounds. It will be impossible to discuss all of these non-black
fillers within a single chapter. Therefore, the discussion will describe some
non-black fillers, and will also examine differences between reinforcing
mechanisms of the non-black fillers and carbon black. Non-black fillers can be
classified in three categories by their function in rubber. Non-black fillers
of the first category are called reinforcing pigments. They include
precipitated silica, fine particle size precipitated calcium carbonate, and
perhaps hard clay with surface treatment. Note that they all have very fine
particle size, less than 1 μm, especially to add high strength to synthetic
rubbers. Non-black fillers of the second category are called diluents. In
practice, they are used to reduce cost of the compound. Soft clay, ground
calcium carbonate, talc and barytes fall into this category. They are all
considered inert fillers and sometimes can be used at loadings as high as 200
phr, without significantly increasing the modulus of the compound. Usually this
family of filler reduces compound die swell and provides sharp-edged extrudates
and smooth calendering behaviour in the rubber manufacturing process. The third
category of non-black filler consists of materials that add special traits to
the compound, for example, colour, electrical conductivity, flame resistance,
impermeability, or oil resistance characteristics. All of these traits depend
on the particle size, structure, shape and surface chemistry of the filler when
compounded into rubber.
