Due to the increasing focus on environmental issues, silica is widely used as a filler to achieve both low fuel consumption performance and improved grip performance in tires. However, enhancing tire performance requires control over the dispersion state of silica and the bound rubber phase. We present a case study using SPM (Scanning Probe Microscopy) for mechanical property mapping (PeakForce QNM) of commercial tires (silica-filled rubber), visualizing the dispersion state of silica particles and the bound rubber phase within the tire. [Case Overview] ■ Analysis Sample: Commercial Tire ■ Analysis Method: PeakForce QNM (Bruker Dimension Icon) *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

In the fields of automobiles and aircraft, lightweight organic/inorganic composite materials with strength and rigidity are widely used. The size and dispersion state of inorganic fillers contained in organic/inorganic composite materials significantly affect mechanical properties, making it necessary to understand the distribution and orientation of inorganic fillers. This document presents a case study where fillers within a resin were evaluated in three dimensions using FIB-SEM. [Case Summary] ■ Analysis Sample - Automotive resin containing inorganic fillers ■ Analysis Results - It was found that the resin contains approximately 10Vol% of fillers. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
