Abstract
In this article, we examine the use of sensitivity analysis for the optimization of selected physical properties in rubber compounds and determine objective criteria which allow for the reduction of environmental load during rubber compound production. The sensitivity analysis shows how significantly each input value affects the output value, and the response graphs express the effect of the selected parameter on the output value. The solutions described in the article are applicable to other production technologies. We present a sensitivity analysis based on the prediction of selected mechanical properties of rubber mixtures composed of Standard Malaysian Rubber (SMR). Two blends were pre- pared by mixing SMR and oleic acid and different concentrations of surfactant (2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 20, 30 wt%). Tensile strength Rm and moduli M100, M200, M300 were measured and evaluated. The sensitivity analysis showed the significance of certain ingredients which affect the measured mechanical properties.
