The rate of crystallization varies with temperature and the type of rubber.;The best grades of raw rubber (pale crepe or smoked sheet) contain about 95% rubber hydrocarbon. The rest consists of proteins (2-3%), acetone-sol resins and fatty acids (2%), small amounts of sugar and a little mineral matter. Vulcanization, which consists of heating rubber with 1-3% of sulfur, introduces cross links between chains to produce a 3-dimensional lattice of improved elasticity, strength, temp sensitivity. Accelerators such as zinc dimethyldithiocarbamate greatly decrease the time or lower the temp required for vulcanization.;Natural rubber comprises a range of polymers with varying molecular weight estimated as <100,000 to 4 X 10 + 6.;Properties: Chemically unsaturated, not stable to temperature changes (thermoplastic), readily oxidizable by mastication; soluble in acetone, carbon tetrachloride, and most organic solvents; refraction index 1.52; dielectric constant 2.5. Processed by calaendars and extruders; can be injection-molded with low sulfur and high accelerator. Cured by hot-molding or in open steam, at temperatures from 120-150 /degree/ C after addition of 3% sulfur, 1% organic accelerator, 3% zinc oxide, plus fillers or reinforcing agents. The only factors of significance in vulcanization are the time of exposure to heat and the temperature used. /Crude (unvulcanized) natural rubber/;Properties: High tensile strength; relatively low permanent set; insensitive to temperature changes.

Case Study

Preparation of Natural Rubber and Nanocellulose Nanocomposites

Thomas, Martin George, et al. International journal of biological macromolecules, 2015, 81, 768-777.

Nanocomposite films can be prepared by introducing nanocellulose and cross-linking agents into natural rubber (NR). In the NR matrix, cellulose nanofibers can form three-dimensional networks (cellulose/cellulose network and Zn/cellulose network), thereby improving the properties of cross-linked nanocomposites. The Young's modulus and tensile strength of material increased, but elongation at break decreased.
Preparation of NR-based nanocomposites
· Nanocomposite materials were obtained by casting and evaporating a mixture of NR latex and aqueous suspension of cellulose nanofibrils as follows:
· The extracted nanocellulose was mixed with the NR latex along with other cross linking components according to the formulation.
· The composite films were prepared from prevulcanised latex by casting on a glass plate followed by drying at ambient temperature.
· The prevulcanization of the compounded latex was conducted at 70 °C for 2 h using water bath with constant gentle stirring.
· The sample numbers 0, 1, 2 and 3 indicate the weight percentage of nanocellulose used.
