White rice husk ash (WRHA)-filled natural rubber compounds were prepared by using a laboratory-size two-roll mixing mill. Curing using a conventional vulcanization system was used and cure studies were carried out on a Monsanto rheometer. The mechanical testing of the vul-canizates involves the determination of tensile properties, tear strength, hardness, and resilience. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and swelling measurement were also done. The effects of bonding agents on the curing and mechanical properties have been investigated using re-sorsinol formaldehyde and hexamethylene tetramine as the bonding agents. Results show that the bonding agents prolonged the cure timet90and scorch timet2and, at the same time, improved the mechanical properties of the natural rubber vulcanizates. SEM and swelling studies indicate that the rubber-filler interaction is improved with the addition of bonding agents.
