The goal of this research is to investigate the thermal, chemical, and tensile properties of chemical modification of sugarcane bagasse (SCB)-filled polypropylene (PP) and recycled acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBRr). The composites with different SCB loading (5, 15, and 30 per hundred resin) were prepared using a heated two-roll mill at temperature of 180°C.Thermal and the tensile properties of the modified SCB composite have shown improvement. The silane-treated composites have higher thermal stability compared to treated NaOH. The degradation temperature at 70% weight ( T 70%) of NaOH and silane composite increase by 6% and 15%, respectively. Meanwhile, the tensile strength and Young’s modulus for the both treatment showed an improvement of 20% and 25% for NaOH and 30% and 32% for silane compared to untreated composites, respectively. The chemical properties were investigated using Fourier transform infrared analysis. The modification SCB fiber has improved the adhesion and interfacial bonding between SCB fiber and PP/NBRr matrices.

The using of Trans-Polyoctylene Rubber (TOR) as a compatibilizer with acrylonitrile butadiene rubber/recycled natural latex gloves (NBR/NRL-G) has been investigated. The compounds were prepared with different (TOR) loading (0, 2, 4,6 and 8 Phr) using two roll mills at room temperature. The properties such as cure characteristics, tensile properties, physical properties and morphology were studied. The compatibilized (NBR/NRL-G) compounds exhibited overall good cure characteristics, morphological and physical properties compared uncompatibilized (NBR/NRL-G) compound. The addition of the (TOR) up to 6 Phr was the optimum tensile strength.
