Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of rubber materials technology, and in particular to a method for predicting the aging life of rubber. Background Technology

[0002] Rubber is a widely used insulating, sealing, noise-reducing, and vibration-damping material in various types of equipment and products. However, during long-term service, it is prone to performance degradation and even functional failure due to thermo-oxidative aging, posing a significant threat to the normal use of equipment and products. Currently, researchers generally use the Arrhenius model, which aligns the relationship between rubber aging rate and temperature, as the theoretical basis for predicting rubber aging life.

[0003] However, the technical approaches used for modeling rubber aging life vary depending on the data source. One approach is to use linear extrapolation based on accelerated thermal aging test data from laboratories to derive a model of rubber's performance degradation under storage temperature conditions. Another approach is to directly use mathematical modeling based on natural environment test data to obtain a performance degradation model. Once the performance degradation model of the sample is obtained, the predicted lifespan of the sample can be calculated given a known performance degradation threshold.

[0004] Both methods have their limitations, with limited predictive accuracy. While laboratory accelerated thermal aging tests can effectively shorten testing time and save costs, they inevitably differ from the actual service environment of equipment / products. Rubber natural environment tests closely resemble actual service environments, but they also have drawbacks such as long time spans, high testing costs, and limited data sample sizes. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This invention discloses a method for predicting the aging life of rubber. It uses data from both natural environment tests and accelerated thermal aging tests in the laboratory. This solves the problem that the test data obtained from accelerated thermal aging tests in the laboratory deviates from the material performance degradation law under real storage conditions, and also solves the problems of long time span, high cost, and insufficient data samples in natural environment tests of rubber.

[0006] This invention is achieved through the following technical solution: a first modeling step, a second parameter determination step, and a third prediction step; wherein,

[0007] The first modeling step is to establish a rubber aging prediction model;

[0008] The second parameter determination step involves combining natural environment tests and accelerated laboratory thermal aging tests to determine the parameters of the rubber aging prediction model under actual storage conditions for the rubber to be tested.

[0009] The third prediction step involves predicting the storage life of rubber based on the rubber aging prediction model after parameter confirmation.

[0010] The advantage of this embodiment is that the present invention uses both natural environment test data and laboratory accelerated thermal aging test data of rubber as the parameter data sample for the rubber aging prediction model, while retaining the advantages of using natural environment test data and laboratory accelerated thermal aging test data for parameter determination; it reduces the time span of natural environment test of rubber, reduces test costs, and the obtained rubber aging prediction model is closer to the performance degradation law under real storage environment and has a more accurate prediction effect.

[0011] Specifically, in the second step of parameter determination, the method combines natural environment testing of rubber with accelerated thermal aging testing in the laboratory, and the specific method is as follows:

[0012] Based on the temperature of the rubber under test in the actual storage environment, weights are assigned to the parameters of the rubber aging prediction model calculated under different test conditions; the closer the rubber aging test temperature is to the temperature of the rubber under test in the actual storage environment, the higher the weight value of the parameters of the rubber aging prediction model calculated.

[0013] In the second parameter determination step, the parameters of the rubber aging prediction model for the rubber under actual storage conditions are determined. The specific method is as follows:

[0014] Based on the parameters of the fused rubber aging prediction model, a regression algorithm is used to fit the relationship function between the parameters of the rubber aging prediction model and temperature. The parameters in the rubber aging prediction model are then determined based on the temperature of the rubber under actual storage conditions.

[0015] The advantage of this embodiment is that, based on the temperature of the rubber under actual storage conditions, the weights of different rubber aging test parameters are assigned. The closer the test parameters are to the actual storage temperature, the higher their weights. Finally, a regression algorithm is used to determine the parameters in the rubber aging prediction model at the actual storage temperature. The resulting rubber aging prediction model is more accurate in predicting rubber life than the rubber aging prediction model with parameters determined by laboratory accelerated thermal aging tests. At the same time, it does not require a lot of time to conduct a large number of natural environment tests on rubber, thus saving test costs.

[0016] Furthermore, in the first modeling step, the specific formula of the rubber aging prediction model is as follows:

[0017] P = Aexp(-Kτ) α )

[0018] in,

[0019] P is a performance change index, which can be the compression set retention rate, the compression stress relaxation coefficient, or the elongation at break change rate.

[0020] τ represents the aging time;

[0021] K is a constant representing the rate of change of performance, which is temperature-dependent;

[0022] A is a constant;

[0023] α is a constant.

[0024] This embodiment uses the Arrhenius model as the rubber aging prediction model. This model has high prediction accuracy and requires fewer parameters to be confirmed, which can reduce the computational load of parameter confirmation in the rubber aging prediction model and improve the calculation speed.

[0025] Specifically, the constant α is calculated as follows:

[0026] Let X = τ α Y = lnP; a = lnA; b = -K; The rubber aging prediction model is expressed as Y = a + bX;

[0027] Select laboratory accelerated thermal aging test data (P) ij -τ ij If X and Y have a strong linear relationship, α is 1; otherwise, the successive approximation method is used to determine the value of α.

[0028] Rubber aging test data P ij -τ ij , indicating the i-th test temperature T i Different aging times τ i1 ,τ i2 ,τ i3 ,…,τ ij Below, there are different performance change indicators P. i1 ,P i2 ,P i3 ,…P ij (i=1,2,…,m; j=1,2,…,n).

[0029] Furthermore, to determine whether X and Y have a strong linear relationship, at least the following conditions must be met:

[0030] Assuming α is 1, the correlation coefficient r is obtained using the least squares method; then, by referring to the correlation coefficient table with a 99% confidence level and degrees of freedom f = n - 2, the calculated value of r is compared with the value of r. cal Comparison, |r cal |>r

[0031]

[0032] in,

[0033]

[0034]

[0035]

[0036]

[0037] Specifically, the value of α is determined by successive approximation. The specific approximation criterion is that I is minimized when α is accurate to two decimal places.

[0038]

[0039] In the formula, P ij This represents the test value of the performance change index at the j-th test point under the i-th aging test temperature; This represents the predicted value of the performance change index at the j-th test point under the i-th aging test temperature.

[0040] Furthermore, at different temperatures T i The calculation methods for the constant and the performance change rate constant are as follows:

[0041] The least squares method can be used to solve for the coefficients a and b in the equation Y = a + bX, thus obtaining the constant A and the performance change rate constant K.

[0042]

[0043]

[0044] A = exp(a)

[0045] K = -b

[0046] Based on the accelerated thermal aging test data from the laboratory, the different test temperatures T were calculated. i The corresponding acceleration constant A i and the rate constant of acceleration performance change K i ;

[0047] Based on the natural environment test data of rubber, the natural constant A0 and the natural performance change rate constant K0 corresponding to the natural test temperature T0 were calculated.

[0048] Furthermore, by integrating the parameters of the rubber aging prediction model calculated under natural environment tests and accelerated laboratory thermal aging tests, the parameters of the rubber aging prediction model for the rubber under actual storage conditions are determined. The specific method is as follows:

[0049] Using weight matrix Let A be the acceleration constant. i And the natural constant A0, and the natural performance change rate constant K0 and the acceleration performance change rate constant K i Assign weights;

[0050] The specific KT and AT relationships are obtained by solving the convergent weight matrices W and β using the adaptive weighted least squares method.

[0051] Based on the actual storage environment temperature of the rubber to be tested, determine the constants A and the performance change rate constant K in the rubber aging prediction model of the rubber to be tested.

[0052] The advantage of this embodiment is that the weight matrix can effectively reflect the distance relationship between the actual storage temperature and the test temperature. The greater the distance, the lower the weight. The weight matrix is ​​easy to calculate and integrates the parameters of the rubber aging prediction model calculated under the natural environment test and the laboratory accelerated thermal aging test.

[0053] Specifically, in the weight matrix, ω i The calculation formula is:

[0054]

[0055] The advantage of this embodiment is that ω i Using this calculation formula, the effect of the difference between the actual storage temperature and each test temperature on the accuracy of the parameters can be reflected, and the calculation is convenient.

[0056] Specifically, in the weight matrix, ω i The calculation formula is:

[0057]

[0058] in, K′ i and T′ i The constants for performance change and temperature are given after dimensionless processing.

[0059] The advantage of this embodiment is that it takes into account the range of test temperatures under natural environment tests and accelerated laboratory thermal aging tests for rubber, and the rubber aging prediction model obtained according to this weighting calculation formula has higher accuracy.

[0060] Other advantages, objectives, and features of the invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be apparent to those skilled in the art from the following examination, or may be learned from practice of the invention. The objectives and other advantages of the invention can be realized and obtained from the following description and claims. Attached Figure Description

[0070] Where P is a performance change index, which can be the compression set retention rate, the compression stress relaxation coefficient, or the elongation at break rate; τ is the aging time; K is a performance change rate constant, which is related to temperature; A is a constant; and α is a constant.

[0071] In this step, the rubber aging prediction model can also be any other known mathematical model that can be used to predict the aging life of rubber.

[0072] S2, Second parameter confirmation step;

[0073] By combining natural environment tests and laboratory accelerated thermal aging tests on rubber, the parameters of the rubber aging prediction model under actual storage conditions were determined.

[0074] Specifically, combining natural environment tests and laboratory accelerated thermal aging tests on rubber, the specific method is as follows: based on the temperature of the rubber under test in the actual storage environment, weights are assigned to the parameters of the rubber aging prediction model calculated at different test temperatures; the closer the rubber aging test temperature is to the temperature of the rubber under test in the actual storage environment, the higher the weight value of the parameters of the rubber aging prediction model calculated therein.

[0075] The parameters of the rubber aging prediction model for the rubber under actual storage environment are determined by the following method: based on the parameters of the fused rubber aging prediction model, a regression algorithm is used to fit the relationship function between the parameters of the rubber aging prediction model and temperature, and the parameters in the rubber aging prediction model are determined based on the temperature of the rubber under actual storage environment.

[0076] In this embodiment, a weighted linear regression algorithm is used, which combines the advantages of determining parameters through natural environment testing of rubber and accelerated thermal aging testing in the laboratory. It is conceivable that the test data can be directly weighted according to the test temperature to calculate the parameters of the rubber aging prediction model. Alternatively, it is conceivable that any intermediate parameter, whether custom or known, can be used to reflect the temperature difference, and the parameters of the rubber aging prediction model can be calculated using this intermediate parameter.

[0077] S21. The method for calculating the constant α is as follows:

[0078] Let X = τ α Y = lnP; a = lnA; b = -K; The rubber aging prediction model is expressed as Y = a + bX;

[0079] Select laboratory accelerated thermal aging test data (P) ij -τ ij If X and Y have a strong linear relationship, α is 1; otherwise, the successive approximation method is used to determine the value of α.

[0080] Rubber aging test data P ij -τ ij , indicating the i-th test temperature T i Different aging times τ i1 ,τ i2 ,τ i3 ,…,τ ij Below, there are different performance change indicators P. i1 ,P i2 ,P i3 ,…P ij (i=1,2,…,m; j=1,2,…,n).

[0081] To determine whether X and Y have a strong linear relationship, at least the following conditions must be met:

[0082] Assuming α is 1, the correlation coefficient r is obtained using the least squares method; then, by referring to the correlation coefficient table with a 99% confidence level and degrees of freedom f = n - 2, the calculated value of r is compared with the value of r. cal Comparison, |r cal |>r

[0083]

[0084] in,

[0085]

[0086]

[0087]

[0088]

[0089] The value of α is determined by a successive approximation method. The specific approximation criterion is that I is minimized when α is accurate to two decimal places.

[0090]

[0091] In the formula, P ij This represents the test value of the performance change index at the j-th test point under the i-th aging test temperature; This represents the predicted value of the performance change index at the j-th test point under the i-th aging test temperature.

[0092] In this embodiment, the calculation of α does not require combining natural environment tests and laboratory accelerated thermal aging tests of rubber; other conventional methods can also be used for calculation.

[0093] S22, different temperatures T i The calculation methods for constant A and the performance change rate constant K are as follows:

[0094] The least squares method can be used to solve for the coefficients a and b in the equation Y = a + bX, thus obtaining the constant A and the performance change rate constant K.

[0095]

[0096]

[0100] Based on the natural environment test data of rubber, the natural constant A0 and the natural performance change rate constant K0 corresponding to the natural test temperature T0 were calculated.

[0101] In this embodiment, the corresponding constant A is calculated under different temperature conditions. i and the rate constant of performance change K i and the constant A i and the rate constant of performance change K i By associating the data with temperature, it becomes easier to find patterns of temperature change using regression algorithms.

[0102] S23. By integrating the parameters of the rubber aging prediction model obtained from natural environment tests and accelerated laboratory thermal aging tests, the parameters of the rubber aging prediction model for the rubber under actual storage conditions are determined. The specific method is as follows:

[0103] Using weight matrix Let A be the acceleration constant. i And the natural constant A0, and the natural performance change rate constant K0 and the acceleration performance change rate constant K i Assign weights;

[0104] The specific KT and AT relationships are obtained by solving the convergent weight matrices W and β using the adaptive weighted least squares method.

[0105] Based on the actual storage environment temperature of the rubber to be tested, determine the constants A and the performance change rate constant K in the rubber aging prediction model of the rubber to be tested.

[0106] In the weight matrix, ω i The calculation formula is:

[0107]

[0108] In this embodiment, the weight matrix can be adjusted as needed, primarily to reflect the ratio of the difference between the actual storage temperature and the experimental temperature. In this embodiment, a regression algorithm is used to fit the relationship between temperature and parameters; however, other machine learning algorithms or algorithms capable of fitting functions can also be used.

[0109] S3, the third prediction step;

[0110] Based on the rubber aging prediction model with confirmed parameters, the storage life of rubber is predicted.

[0117] The error at each node is evaluated using relative error erro, and the absolute mean of the error is used. Perform an overall error assessment of the model;

[0118]

[0119]

[0120] This step is optional and its purpose is to evaluate the prediction model and provide data support for subsequent model correction.
