Abstract

This research aims to study and compare the influences of Jatropha curcas oil on properties of carbon black-filled styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) / natural rubber (NR) blends. Preparation of the rubber compounds was carried out by blending styrene-butadiene rubber with natural rubber at different proportions. The content of Jatropha curcas oil or paraffinic oil was varied from 0.0-9.0 parts per hundred of rubber (phr). The processability and mechanical properties of the rubber compounds were then investigated. The results revealed that two types of processing aids could improve the processability of the rubber compound, i.e., both viscosity and mixing energy were found to decrease with increasing processing aid content. The tensile and tear strengths of the NR/SBR blends increase with increasing NR percentage. The results obtained also indicate that the addition of Jatropha curcas oil does not significantly affect the mechanical properties of the blends.
