Journal ArticleDOI
Natural rubber-based nanocomposites by latex compounding with layered silicates
TL;DR: In this article, natural rubber (NR) based nanocomposites with 10% natural and synthetic layered silicates were produced via the latex compounding method, and the silicate dispersion was studied by transmission electron microscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of interfacial adhesion on the mechanical properties and fracture behaviour of short sisal fibre reinforced polymer composites
Kuruvilla Joseph,Siby Varghese,G. Kalaprasad,Sabu Thomas,L. Prasannakumari,Peter Koshy,C. Pavithran +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the mechanical properties of sisal fiber composites of several thermoset resin matrices, [polyester, epoxy, phenol-formaldehyde] and a thermoplastic matrix [low density polyethylene (LDPE)] were evaluated with respect to fibre length and fibre loading.
Journal ArticleDOI
Melt compounded epoxidized natural rubber/layered silicate nanocomposites: structure-properties relationships
TL;DR: In this article, the dispersion state of the layered silicates was studied by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy, and the best mechanical properties were found for the ENR containing the organoclay with primary amine modification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Melt‐compounded natural rubber nanocomposites with pristine and organophilic layered silicates of natural and synthetic origin
TL;DR: In this paper, composites based on natural rubber (NR) and containing organophilic and pristine layered silicates of natural and synthetic origin were produced by melt com- pounding and sulfur curing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphology and mechanical properties of layered silicate reinforced natural and polyurethane rubber blends produced by latex compounding
TL;DR: In this paper, the dispersion of the LS latices in the composite was studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and informa- tion on the rubber/LS interaction was received from Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and dynamic me- chanical thermal analysis (DMTA).
