Article Synopsis
  • Acrylonitrile-butadiene rubbers (NBRs) have unique properties, featuring a low glass transition temperature and a high dielectric constant compared to other rubbers.
  • The study evaluated how the sequence of the acrylonitrile (AN) monomers impacts these properties by synthesizing both random and alternating copolymers and analyzing their C-N stretching vibrations.
  • Results showed that alternating copolymers exhibited a higher dielectric constant than random ones due to greater flexibility in their structure, highlighting the significance of monomer sequence in determining the rubber's dielectric properties.
