Abstract Strain endurance experiments on a filled elastomer were performed at several temperatures. It was found that superimposed prestraining accelerated the ageing process. This process was caused by microstructural changes in the elastomer. In order to evaluate the mechanical properties of a filled elastomer it is necessary to take into consideration not only the ageing effects but also the loading history.
