The effect of rubber-wood fiber (RWF) on the mechanical properties of the 50/50 polyvinyl chloride/epoxidized natural rubber (PVC/ENR) blend was investigated over a range of fiber loadings (0 to 30%). The RWF filled PVC/ENR blend was prepared by using a Haake mixer at 150oC mixing temperature, 10 mi...
