"Recently, much attention has been focused on research to replace petroleum-based plasticizers, with biodegradable materials, such as biopolymer which offers competitive mechanical properties. In this study, castor oil was modified with maleic anhydride (MAH) to produce bioplasticizer named maleated anhydride castor oil (MACO), and used in nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR)/poly vinyl chloride (PVC) blend. The effect of MACO on its cure characteristics and mechanical properties of NBR/PVC blend has been determined. The reactions were carried out at different castor oil (CO)/xylene ratios, i.e. 1:0 and 1:1 by weight, and fixed CO/MAH ratio, 1:3 by mole. DOP, CO, and MACO were added into each NBR/PVC blend according to the formula.It was found that the viscosity and safe process level of NBR/PVC blend is similar from all plasticizer, however, MACO (1:0) showed the highest cure rate index (CRI). MACO-based plasticizer gave a higher value of the mechanical properties of the NBR/PVC blend as compared to DOP based plasticizer. MACO (1:1) based plasticizer showed a rather significance performance compared to another type of plasticizers both before and after aging. The value of hardness, elongation at break, tensile strength, and tear strength were 96 Shore A, 155.91 %, 19.15 MPa, and 74.47 MPa, respectively. From this result, NBR/PVC blends based on MACO plasticizer can potentially replace the DOP, and therefore, making the rubber blends eco-friendly."

"Silica combine with carbon black was successfully applied in natural rubber hybrid composites. The processability of those composites were evaluated through assessment of Mooney viscocity, time to scorch, cure characteristic, reversion tendency and viscous to elastic (V/E) ratio. Types of silica employes in this research were local silica and Zeosil. Silica loading was 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20 phr, and carbon black was set to be fixed. SEM study was conducted to scan the morphology of both silica. The processability parameters had been evaluated using Mooney viscometer and Moving Die Rheometer (MDR). The MDR experiments were carried out in three different temperatures, i. e. 130, 150, and 170ºC. Local silica particles showed smaller size but with agglomeration. Introduction silica markedly increased the Mooney viscocity and minimum torque (ML). Types of silica affect the time to scorch, optimum cure time and maximum cure rate, and V/E ratio. All rubber samples showed reversion tendency at high temperature. "
