Curing characteristics and tensile properties of white fly ash filled natural rubber compounds
The effect of white fly ash (WFA) on cure characteristics and tensile properties of natural rubber compounds were investigated in the range of 0 to 30 phr. The size of WFA that is used in this study was 45-75 μm. Based on the result, it is found that the scorch time and cure time decreased with incr...

| Summary: | The effect of white fly ash (WFA) on cure characteristics and tensile properties of natural rubber compounds were investigated in the range of 0 to 30 phr. The size of WFA that is used in this study was 45-75 μm. Based on the result, it is found that the scorch time and cure time decreased with increasing of WFA loading. The tensile strength gradually increased to the maximum at 5 phr WFA. The further increase of WFA loading led to the decrease in tensile strength. Tensile properties such as M100 (stress at 100 % elongation) was gradually increased with the increasing of WFA loading, meanwhile, the elongation break showed a decreasing trend. © 2014 Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland. |
