This experiment studied the rheological properties and curing characteristics of natural rubber compounds with and without carbon black filler. The compounds were processed using mastication and molding in a hot press. Viscosity testing showed the filled compound had a gradually decreasing viscosity while the non-filled compound rapidly decreased after 4 minutes. Curing properties were analyzed using an oscillating disc rheometer, showing the filled compound had a faster cure time than the non-filled compound based on values like scorch time, maximum torque and cure rate index. Carbon black was added as a filler to improve properties like modulus, abrasion resistance and strength.

In this experiment, we have used natural rubber, Sulphur, zinc oxide, steric
acid, n-cyclohexyl-2-benzothiazolesulfenamide (CBS) and N-Phenyl-beta-
naphthylamine (NONOX) for non-fillers compound and we have added carbon black to the filled compound. Processing start from mastication and end with vulcanization process by molding in a hot press. The most important parameter in processing is flow. The study of flow behavior is known as rheology. The most common parameter used to assess flow behavior is viscosity. If the compounds viscosity is too high, it makes processability difficult and might end up with poor knitting and poor finishing surface because the flow is poor. If the viscosity of the rubber compound is too low, then it would lead to excessive flow which may affect processability such as sticking of rubber compound to mill roll. Besides that, variation in viscosity would produce uneven extrudate profile as a consequence of variation in extrudate swell. From the mooney viscosity test, the filled compound was gradually dropped while non-filler compound was rapidly dropped after 4 minutes. The cure characteristic of rubber compound was investigated using Oscillating Disc Rheometer (ODR). This new model were claimed to reduce testing time while still maintaining precision and accuracy of the test and hence increase the productivity of the rheometer. Using this machine, we have determined the induction period of scorch time which determine the processing safety. The optimum cure time was defined as the time required to produce optimum physical properties for the vulcanized rubber. For the non-filler compound, the minimum torque (M L) is 11 dNm, maximum torque (MH) is 42 dNm, Tc90 is 38.9 dNm and the cure rate index is 2.67 dNm. For the filled compound, the minimum torque (M L) is 12 dNm, the maximum torque (M H) 51.4 dNm, Tc90 is 47.46 dNm and the cure rate index is 2.15 dNm. This show that the time taken for the filled compound to cure is faster than non-filler compound. The cure rate index (CRI) was calculated using follows equation: CRI = 100/t90 tc Where: Tc90 = (MH -ML) 0.9 + ML Rubber is reinforced with carbon black to improve the end use performance associated with the increased modulus, abrasion resistance and ultimate properties (tear and tensile strength). The carbon black affect the physical properties of rubber depending on particle size and the loading level.
