Abstract:The Mullins effect during uniaxial compression tests, together with its reversibility, of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA)/nitrile-butadiene rubber (NBR)/zinc dimethacrylate (ZDMA) thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPVs) were investigated systematically. The experimental results indicated that the Mullins effect could be observed during the cyclic uniaxial compression tests and was accompanied with stress softening, residual deformation accumulation and hysteresis. The reversibility of the Mullins effect showed a temperature-dependent feature and was enhanced with increasing temperature.
