Effect of blend ratio on properties of natural rubber/low density polyethylene blends

Sampath, WDM; Egodage, SM; Edirisinghe, DG [Article-Abstract]

Thermoplastic natural rubber (TPNR) those produced by blending of thermoplastics and natural rubber using traditional internal mixers and plastic extruders, are becoming increasingly accepted in the global polymer market. ...
The effect of coupling agent and mixing methods on properties of natural rubber and low density polyethylene blends

Sampath, WDM; Egodage, SM; Edirisinghe, DG [Article-Abstract]

Coupling agents are molecular bridges at the interface between two substrates, an inorganic filler an organic polymer matrix. When incorporated into polymer systems, they often promote adhesio) improve dispersion, improve ...
Improvement of Physico-Mechanical Properties of Calcium Carbonate filled Natural Nubber and Low Density Polyethylene Blends with Titanate Coupling Agent

Sampath, WDM; Edirisinghe, DG; Egodage, SM [Conference-Full-text]

Nonblack particulate fillers most used with thermoplastic and rubber are calcium carbonate, silica, talc and alumina hydrates. The main characteristics, which control the effectiveness and the dispersion of filler in ...
