The purpose of this study is the effect of carbon black loading on mechanical properties of rubber compound. There are several studies about tensile strength of rubber compund and the results are positive. Rubber blends are used for many reasons such as lowering the compound cost, for easee of fabrication and to improve the performance of the rubber industrial. Study the effect of tensile strength on rubber compound based on filler loading has played important role in contributing the fundamental to formulate the rubber compound and investigate the mechanical effect. The aim of this study is the effect carbon black loading on tensile strength of rubber compound. The previous study was show that the different filler and loading give the different effect reinforcing to rubber compound. The objective in this study is to study the effect of filler loading on the tensile strength of rubber compound. We are using two roll mills in high temperature and at medium speed this is to ensure the rubber mix well with other ingredients. The filler use is carbon black N220 and be tested in three experiment based on the filler loading at 10phr, 30phr and 50phr. The mechanical properties - such as tensile strength properties of the present industrial rubber -were studied. The study also indicated that filler material affect on the mechanical properties of the blends.
