Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical and dynamic mechanical properties of rice husk ash–filled natural rubber compounds
TL;DR: In this article, a laboratory-sized two-roll mill was used to incorporate rice husk ash into natural rubber and a conventional vulcanization system was used for curing and cure studies were carried out on a rheometer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation and characterization of nanocrystalline cellulose from corn husk
Carlos Augusto de Carvalho Mendes,Carlos Augusto de Carvalho Mendes,Naiara Marinho Sgambato Ferreira,Cristina R. G. Furtado,Ana Maria Furtado de Sousa +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of reaction time and the fiber/acid ratio on the properties of nanocrystalline cellulose isolated from corn husk was investigated, and it was shown that reaction time affected the crystallinity index, particle size and thermal stability of the products.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of coupling agent and chemical treatment on rice husk ash‐ filled natural rubber composites
TL;DR: In this paper, Rice husk ash was incorporated into natural rubber (NR) using a laboratory size two-roll mill, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis was done to verify the presence of the characteristic functional groups of precipitated silica in MHA and THA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stress relaxation of nitrile rubber composites filled with a hybrid metakaolin/carbon black filler under tensile and compressive forces
Elisson Brum Dutra da Rocha,Felipe Nunes Linhares,Cléverson Fernandes Senra Gabriel,Ana Maria Furtado de Sousa,Cristina R. G. Furtado +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of the hybrid-system filler on the relaxation process of nitrile rubber composites under tensile and compressive loading was assessed to determine the effect the hybrid system filler had on the stress relaxation process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rice-husk-ash-filled natural rubber. II. Partial replacement of commercial fillers and the effect on the vulcanization process
TL;DR: In this article, commercial fillers, such as precipitated silica (Zeosil-175) and carbon black (N762), were partially replaced by black rice husk ash and WRHA.
