Mechanochemically devulcanized ground rubber tire (GRT) was (re)vulcanized in compositions with virgin natural rubber (NR). The NR/GRT (re)vulcanizates with GRT content from 20 to 60 wt% have been prepared and studied. Reclaiming of GRT was successfully carried out by tetra methyl thiuram disulfide (TMTD) in presence of spindle oil at around ambient temperature. The cure characteristics and mechanical properties of the virgin NR/reclaim GRT blend were studied. The optimum cure time decreases but scorch time remain unaltered with increasing reclaim rubber content in the blend. Effect of carbon black was studied in NR/RR (80/20) blend. Ageing characteristics of different NR/RR blends were evaluated. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies further indicate the coherency and homogeneity in the NR/RR vulcanizate. The dynamic mechanical properties and swelling behavior of NR/RR blend vulcanizates were examined. The elastic and storage modulus of the NR/RR vulcanizates become improve with increasing reclaim rubber content. Electrical properties of NR/RR vulcanizates were also studied.
