Effect of egg shell powder (ESP) on cure characteristic, physical and mechanical properties of acrylonitrile rubber (NBR) composites / Noorakma Syareena Dahalan
Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) is an inorganic powder that is usually used in paints, plastics and rubber industry as a filler. CaCO3 is used as a filler in some applications and studies have shown that egg shell contains about 95 % calcium carbonate. The objectives of this study are to study the charact...

Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) is an inorganic powder that is usually used in paints, plastics and rubber industry as a filler. CaCO3 is used as a filler in some applications and studies have shown that egg shell contains about 95 % calcium carbonate. The objectives of this study are to study the characterization of treated Egg Shell (tES) and untreated Egg Shell (uES) powder in micron size by using Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). To determine the effect on cure characteristic of treated Egg Shell (tES) and untreated Egg Shell (uES) powder in NBR composites. To evaluate the physical and mechanical properties of treated Egg Shell (tES) and untreated Egg Shell (uES) powder in NBR composites. CaCO3 is derived from egg shell and undergoes pre-treatment which is alkali treatment. The egg shell undergoes specific process to make it as powder and being treated with 6 % concentration of Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) to improve the Nitrile Rubber (NBR) composites performance. The treated egg shell (tES) is weighed based on the formulation compounding and divided into 5 phr, 10 phr, 15 phr and 20 phr of filler loading.
