Abstract:In this work, 3-trimethoxysilylpropyl methacrylate (MPS) was used as a substrate for coating on natural rubber (NR) particles by admicellar polymerization. The incorporation of MPS monomer, consisting of silicon element and 3 reactive methoxy groups (R-Si(OCH3)), is expected to increase dielectric properties of NR. Under the admicellar polymerization, the R-Si(OCH3) groups can be hydrolyzed and condensed into polysiloxane existed on NR particles. This method aims to prepare composite materials from NR and MPS … Show more
