本书是主要阐述粒状填料对橡胶补强的学术专著。填料对橡胶补强是橡胶工业中应用最为广泛的技术之一，99%以上的橡胶制品均含填料，而炭黑和二氧化硅（白炭黑）是常用的填料。目前填料的研究和开发已成为橡胶科技研究中最活跃的领域。
本书除简单介绍填料的制作过程外，着重详细说明填料的微观结构、基本性质及它们表征的原理和方法。在此基础上，本书从理论上阐述了填料在橡胶中的各种效应及这些效应是如何影响填充橡胶的加工性能、硫化胶在溶剂中的溶胀行为和物理机械性能，诸如静态及动态应力-应变特性及破坏特性，并从机理上论述了上述硫化胶性能与橡胶制品，尤其是轮胎的最终使用性能之间的关系。
本书对于橡胶行业的工程师和产品开发人员，以及从事橡胶研究的技术人员、教师和学生是很好的参考资料。
