Abstract
AbstractA comparative study was performed of fly ash and nano‐CaCO3 as fillers in polybutadiene rubber with 0, 4, 8 and 12% fly ash and nano‐CaCO3. Uniform sheets were prepared of well‐compounded rubber. Nano‐CaCO3 was synthesized by in situ deposition. The CaCO3 nanoparticles as reinforcing agents improved the tensile strength more than 50% than fly ash, and the toughness and hardness also increased significantly. Up to a 75% reduction in flammability and a 100% improvement in the tear strength were observed with nano‐CaCO3.© 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 96: 6–9, 2005
