A Correlation between Experimental Characteristics and Stress Analysis Modeling for Recycled Silicone Rubber

In this paper we present a correlation between the experimental results obtained in the characterization process and the results from stress analysis modeling using Autodesk Inventor Professional 2009 for Recycled Silicone Rubber samples obtained by mechanical grinding from fiberglass rod. We used Scanning Electron Microscopy for the morphological characterization of the obtained samples, which was correlated with Atomic Force Microscopy, in order to evaluate a transversal section of a sample. The Dynamic Mechanical Analysis results were in concordance with the results obtained from the Stress Analysis Modeling.
