Abstract The present research aimed to develop natural rubber (NR) hybrid composites reinforced with treated ultrafine calcium carbonate/carbon black (CC/CB). The influence of CC/CB with various filler ratios (50/0, 40/10, 30/20, 20/30, 10/40 and 0/50) on mechanical properties and cure characteristics of the vulcanizates was investigated and their reinforcing efficiency was compared aiming to achieve the best ratio for CB partial substitution as compared to composites with CC and CB incorporated separately. The CC30/CB20 composites reached around to 17 MPa similar strength at break response compared to CC0/CB50 (16.83 MPa). Elongation at break increased 48% in relation to CC0/CB50. Hardness maintain similar values compare to high concentration of CB composites. Crosslink density results revealed similar chain number in rubber matrix representing better interaction between CC/CB. Scanning electron microscopy studies also reveal a good filler dispersion between filler particles and matrix. The results shown that the new material can be an alternative filler for partial substitution of CB conserving mechanical properties.

ABSTRACT Protein effect on vulcanization of NR, obtained from Hevea brasiliensis, was investigated by analyzing the crosslinking structure of the resulting vulcanizates prepared from untreated NR, deproteinized natural rubber (DPNR), and protein-free natural rubber (PFNR) by swelling methods and rubber-state NMR spectroscopy. The proteins present in NR were removed by three methods: deproteinization with enzyme, urea, or urea–acetone in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. The amount of proteins present in NR, approximately 0.238 w/w%, was reduced to 0.000 w/w% by urea–acetone deproteinization, whereas it was reduced to approximately 0.003 and 0.019 w/w% by enzyme and urea deproteinizations, respectively. Hardness, swelling degree, and crosslinking structure depended on the amount of proteins. Changes in mechanical properties for the vulcanizates prepared from not only non-filler compounds but also carbon black–filled and silica-filled compounds were attributed to the amount of proteins.

This research aimed to develop the formulation of natural rubber filled with carbon black, silica and calcium carbonate for rubber calf nipple application. The reverse engineering was performed on the calf nipple product to analyze the rubber type and component by using Soxhlet extraction, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) techniques. Furthermore, mechanical properties were examined to act as benchmark for the rubber compound design. The results showed that rubber component in the nipple product was natural rubber, whereas two filler types revealed as carbon black and calcium carbonate with 10 and 35 of the total weight. In addition, rubber nipple showed the hardness of 46±1 Shore A and tensile strength of 5.3±0.60 MPa. From the investigation of the properties of developed rubber compounds in this work, it was found that the mechanical properties depended on type and content of filler. The required mechanical properties of vulcanizates were achieved at 20 phr of carbon black (N330), 20 phr of silica and 120 phr of calcium carbonate.
