In this paper, a series of composites containing of the oligo‐phenol (produced by reacting of 4‐methyl‐phenol with dicyclopentadiene and isobutylene (MPDI)) as organic fillers, and chlorinated butyl rubber (CIIR)/acrylate rubber (AR) as matrix were prepared by melting blending method. The selective distribution phenomenon of organic fillers in the matrix and the damping properties of AR/CIIR/MPDI composites were characterized by DMA, DSC, FT‐IR and SEM, respectively. The results showed that MPDI could form hydrogen bond with AR more easily than with CIIR, which resulted in MPDI dispersing preferentially in AR phase in CIIR/AR composites. And the selective dispersion of MPDI caused that the damping temperature range was orientedly broadened towards the high temperature. Specially, with the content of MPDI increased to 10 wt% in AR/CIIR marix, only the T g of AR in AR/CIIR composites shifted to higher temperature, which reached to 55.2°C, while the T g and T ll of CIIR in AR/CIIR composites kept almost unchanged. Otherwise, the temperature range of AR/CIIR/MPDI was expanded to 100.2°C with the tan δ > 0.3. Therefore, it was expected as a promising way to orientedly broaden damping temperature range according to the selective distribution of organic additives in binary systems. POLYM.
