Strain induced crystallization in vulcanized natural rubber containing ground tire rubber particles with reinforcement and nucleation abilities

Strain induced crystallization (SIC) of peroxide vulcanized natural rubber (NR)/ground tire rubber (GTR) composites is studied by combining mechanical and microstructural characterization techniques. It is found that the incorporation of GTR into the NR matrix leads to more effective reinforcement a...
