The low strain limit for dynamic storage modulus was found to be remarkably similar for CB-filled oil compared to CB-filled SBR. Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) measurements on the simple composites and detailed data analysis confirmed that the aggregate structures and nature of filler branching/networking of carbon black were virtually identical within oil compared to the high molecular weight polymer matrix. The combined dynamic rheology and SAXS results provide clear evidence that the deformation-induced breaking (unjamming) of the filler network – characterized by filler-filler contacts that are percolated throughout the material – is the main cause for the Payne effect. However, the polymer matrix does play a secondary role as demonstrated by a reduction in Payne effect magnitude with increasing temperature for the CB-reinforced rubber, which was not observed to a significant extent for the oil-CB system. %G English %2 https://hal.science/hal-02566982/document %2 https://hal.science/hal-02566982/file/PayneEffect_RubChemTech_HAL2019.pdf %L hal-02566982 %U https://hal.science/hal-02566982 %~ CNRS %~ L2C %~ MIPS %~ UNIV-MONTPELLIER %~ UM-2015-2021
