CHAPTER 4:Preparation and Properties of Natural Rubber Composites and Nanocomposites
2013
The preparations of natural rubber composites and nanocomposites are mainly outlined in this chapter according to classification of reinforcing agents. Up to present, the reinforcing agents have been mainly divided into four different types of nano-fillers, namely, conventional fillers, natural fillers, inorganic metal or metallic compound fillers and hybrid fillers. The natural rubber composites and nanocomposites are generally prepared by three main methods, namely, mechanical blending, solution mixing and melting blending. The thermal and mechanical properties of natural rubber composites and nanocomposites were summarized. The advantages and disadvantages of each method were discussed in detail with emphasis on the classification of reinforcing fillers.
