The effect of carbon black (CB) substitution with raw (BNT) and modified (M-BNT) bentonite on the thermal aging resistance of natural rubber (NR) composites was investigated in this study. NR composites were prepared at varied proportions of CB, M-BNT, and BNT using a three-component, third degree simplex lattice mixture design of experiment (DOE). M-BNT was produced by modifying sodium-activated bentonite with tetradecyldimethylamine (TDA) salt and cocamide diethanolamine (CDEA). Thermal aging was performed at 70 and 100°C for 168 and 336 h. Substitution of CB with 5 phr M-BNT gave the highest values of tensile properties (modulus and strength) for both unaged and aged samples. This is attributed to the synergistic effect of CB and M-BNT fillers on the tensile properties of NR composites. In terms of property retention (%), composites filled with M-BNT and BNT clay fillers attained the highest values which signified their excellent thermal aging resistance. This observation proves the barrier effect of clay platelet structure which hinders oxygen diffusion in the rubber. Reduced hierarchical models as function of CB, M-BNT, and BNT proportions were used to generate contour plots for tensile properties of NR composites after 168 h of aging at 70 and 100°C.

The rheometer curing curves of neat natural rubber (NR) and neat chloroprene rubber (CR) with maleide F (MF) exhibit considerable crosslinking torque at 180 °C. This indicates that MF can crosslink both these rubbers via Alder-ene reactions. Based on this knowledge, MF has been introduced as a co-crosslinking agent for a 50/50 blend of NR and CR in conjunction with accelerated sulfur. The delta (Δ) torque obtained from the curing curves of a blend with the addition of 1 phr MF was around 62% higher than those without MF. As the content of MF increased to 3 phr, the Δ torque was further raised to 236%. Moreover, the mechanical properties, particularly the tensile strength of the blend with the addition of 1 phr MF in conjunction with the accelerated sulfur, was around 201% higher than the blend without MF. The overall tensile properties of the blends cured with MF were almost retained even after ageing the samples at 70 °C for 72 h. This significant improvement in the curing torque and the tensile properties of the blends indicates that MF can co-crosslink between NR and CR via the Diels–Alder reaction.
