Abstract: |
This paper aims to reveal the aging mechanism of a certain type helicopter main reducer’s rubber seal ring. According to the environment conditions of normal use and stock of helicopter main reducer’s rubber seal ring, the accelerated aging test method was adopted to simulate the aging process of the rubber sealing ring. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectrometric (XPS) and thermogravimetric analysis (TG/TGA) were adopted to test the physical and chemical properties of the rubber sealing ring after the accelerated aging test. A rubber seal ring with 13 years’ inventory of main reducer and the rubber seal ring removed from the overhaul were tested. The polymer groups of FX-4 and FX-17 rubber sealing ring changed uniformly during accelerated aging test. The electron binding energy of F and O was almost unchanged. The chemical structure of the bonds in rubber does not change obviously. The temperature resistance of FX-17 is slightly better than that of FX-4. |
