Abstract

The natural rubber (SMR 30) was reinforced with micro particle powder TiO_2 with different ratio of (20 – 100) pphr also study the effect of TiO_2 on mechanical properties in different ratio. The tensile, modulus and hardness was increasing while elongation was decreasing. X-Ray penetration resistance for the sample of rubber composite with TiO_2 at (100) pphr was week at 20 KV so the TiO_2 was giving the composite rubber white color.
