Title: Design of silicone rubber according to requirements based on the multi-objective optimization of chemical reactions

Abstract

The explicit expression between composition and mechanical properties of silicone rubber was derived from the physics of polymer elasticity, the implicit expression among material composition, reaction conditions and reaction efficiency was obtained from chemical thermodynamics and kinetics, and then an implicit multi-objective optimization model was constructed. Genetic algorithm was applied to optimize material composition and reaction conditions, and the finite element method of cross-linking reaction processes was used to solve multi-objective functions, on the basis of which a new optimization methodology of cross-linking reaction processes was established. Using this methodology, rubber materials can be designed according to pre-specified requirements.
