✦ Synopsis

Short term stress-strain properties were investigated for natural rubber reinforced with short cellulose fibres at various fibre loads. Stress-strain measurements were also performed on natural rubber composites containing cellulose fibres, electron irradiated in the presence of butadiene or N - hydroxymethylacrylamide, where the latter monomer produced the greatest improvement in stress-strain properties. Chemiluminescence analysis indicated the existence of a surface layer on the fibres after irradiation treatments, and water absorption measurements showed a decrease in water uptake for composites containing irradiated fibres. The results demonstrate the improvement af mechanical properties with a reduced sensitivity to moisture.
