Effects of kenaf loading and alkaline treatment on properties of kenaf filled natural rubber latex foam

This research was carried out to study the effects of kenaf loading and alkaline treatment on tensile properties, density, thermal and morphological properties of kenaf filled natural rubber latex foam (NRLF). Samples were prepared using a Dunlop method. From the results, increasing loading of kenaf...

Samples were prepared using a Dunlop method. From the results, increasing loading of kenaf reduced the tensile strength and elongation at break for both samples, treated and untreated kenaf filled NRLF.

Samples with treated kenaf showed higher tensile strength, modulus at 100% elongation and density but low in elongation at break as compared with samples with untreated kenaf.
