Physical-Mechanical Properties of Chartwell<sup>®</sup> Coupling Agent-Treated Calcium Carbonate and Silica-Reinforced Hybrid Natural Rubber Composites

In this work investigated the possibility of applying a superficial treatment to ultra-fine calcium carbonate aiming to improve its interaction with the polymer chains of natural rubber so it does not act just as a filler. Commercial processes commonly use 40 phr of Silica as reinforcement filler. H...
