Using the industrial technologies of rubber latex irradiation, hydrophilic nanoscale calcium carbonate (HNCC) slurry preparing and spray drying, we have prepared a novel ultrafine full-vulcanized powder nitrile butadiene rubber (UFPNBR)/HNCC nanocompound, in which the UFPNBR particles and HNCC particles are isolated and adhered to each other. When the UFPNBR/HNCC nanocompound powder is mixed with crude NBR, UFPNBR particles are easily dispersed well in NBR matrix because of their good compatibility, thus the HNCC particles are also dispersed in NBR matrix because of the carrier aidance of UFPNBR particles in 7 phr HNCC loading range, then the novel NBR/UFPNBR/HNCC ternary nanocomposites is fabricated. Compared with NBR/organic reagent-treated HNCC (ONCC) binary composites, the NBR/UFPNBR/HNCC ternary nanocomposites has shorter vulcanization time and better properties of abrasive resistance, oil resistance, dynamic compression properties and flame retardancy in fire.
