Internal Status of Visibly Opaque Black Rubbers Investigated by Terahertz Polarization Spectroscopy: Fundamentals and Applications

We discuss the internal status of rubber composites consisting of an insulating rubber matrix and conductive carbon black (CB) fillers (“black rubber”) using polarization-sensitive terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS). The black rubber composites under stretched condition...
