| Abstract | Nanocomposite materials are ubiquitous in outdoor applications. Product performance is determined by the resilience of the bulk material, but aging induces nanoscale releases already from conventional materials. Thus, aging and wear (or wear and aging) might also release embedded nanomaterials from composites. Here, we challenge the hypothesis of release being induced by a synergy of stresses by varying both the sequence and intensity of chemical aging (UV, hydrolysis) and mechanical wear (sanding, shaking, sonication) degradation pathways. First, we explore the effect of varying the intensity of mechanical shear after aging on model elastomers with one of three nanofillers: carbon black is commercially used as a photoprotective filler, and thus serves as a negative control that should reduce release compared to the neat elastomer. In comparison, we find that carbon nanotubes suppress release even more strongly, whereas silica nanofillers increase release. Free nanofillers were occasionally observed with sonication shear after aging. We then reverse the sequence of stresses to explore the pathway of secondary environmental fragmentation using different intensities of UV/hydrolysis after mechanical fragmentation of novel car tires, represented by highly filled natural rubber with 40% carbon black and additionally 4% carbon nanotubes. We determined a maximum free nanofiller mass share of 0.045% of the aged tread wear mass. The “on the road” scenario releases more fragments from simulated tread wear than the “washed to surface water” scenario. Both case studies suggest that the importance of parameters controlling release phenomena overall decreases in the order: aging scenario–matrix properties–nanomaterial properties. Only synergistic aging stresses induce considerable releases. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
