The effect of different NiZn loading (2-10 wt) on morphology, tensile and dynamic mechanical properties of the obtained composites was investigated. It was found that NiZn ferrite is well dispersed in the thermoplastic natural rubber matrix. The tensile results indicated that filler loading has improved the tensile strength and Young's modulus of the nanocomposite. However, the elongation at break decreased with increasing the percentage of NiZn. Dynamic mechanical test showed that the highest storage modulus is at 8 wt filler. Any further increment of the filler content leads to the formation of agglomerate hence affecting the properties. The Scanning electron micrograph (SEM) micrographs reveal aspect ratio and filler orientation in the TPNR matrix also strongly promoted interfacial adhesion between the filler and the matrix to control its properties. © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland. date: 2014 publisher: Trans Tech Publications official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84901715381&doi=10.4028%2fwww.scientific.net%2fAMR.925.308&partnerID=40&md5=abffa5743a6bdfebb9d354a66f008009 id_number: 10.4028/www.scientific.net/AMR.925.308 full_text_status: none publication: Advanced Materials Research volume: 925 place_of_pub: Penang pagerange: 308-312 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9783038350866 issn: 10226680 citation: Tarawneh, M.A. and Hj Ahmad, S. and Jiun, Y.L. and Dweiri, R. and Hassan, I.N.
