Curing Characteristics, Tensile Properties And Morphology Of Kenaf Fibre Filled Natural Rubber Composites

Natural fibres such as kenaf had been widely studied over the years as reinforcement in rubber composites. Natural fibres were found to be comparable to common synthetic fibres for application that do not require very high load bearing capabilities. Natural rubber (NR) composites with different kena...

description Natural fibres such as kenaf had been widely studied over the years as reinforcement in rubber composites. Natural fibres were found to be comparable to common synthetic fibres for application that do not require very high load bearing capabilities. Natural rubber (NR) composites with different kenaf loading i.e 0, 10, 20, 30, 40 phr was used to study the effect of kenaf loading in NR composites. Kenaf treated with NaOH was prepared to study the effect of fibre treatment on properties of kenaf filled NR composites. Natural rubber composites were prepared with different kenaf/HNT ratio loading; 30/0, 20/10, 15/15, 10/20, 0/30 (phr/phr).
