Abstract

The aging effects around the glass and melting transitions in poly(dimethylsiloxane) were investigated. Small amounts of carbon-black (CB) particles were dispersed in a fractal network in nonconducting rubbers for monitoring the structural changes on small length scales due to aging. Long time constants in the relaxation were observed, even above the melting temperature, which indicated that the sample was not in thermal equilibrium. Continuous monitoring of the resistance revealed the structural changes around the glass and melting transitions and details about the hysteresis and aging processes.
