Abstract

the magnetic rubber based on Fe3O4 nanoparticles and nature rubber were prepared by latex compounding method, in which stable Fe3O4 aqueous solutions were mixed with natural rubber latex and additives. This process was fast, versatile, reliable, safe, environmentally friendly and inexpensive. What’s more, it was found that the magnetic and mechanical properties of magnetic rubber increased together with increase in doping content of Fe3O4 nanoparticles. Especially, it was demonstrated that the tensile strength (25.0Mpa) of magnetic rubber was improved to be 478.0% comparing to neat natural rubber (5.2Mpa), which was 5 times higher than maximal value reported in previous work. At the same time, the magnetic rubber revealed better thermal stability and solvent resistance comparing to the neat natural rubber, too. The work dose not only provides a new way to environmentally friendly preparation of magnetic rubber at low temperature, but also improve the mechanical and magnetic properties of magnetic rubber applied in industry.
