Synthesis and characterization of hydroxyl terminated natural rubber-grafted graphene oxide
Hydroxyl terminated natural rubber (HTNR) was prepared from deproteinized natural rubber (DPNR) via oxidative degradation method in toluene at 80 ?, in the presence of cobalt (II) acetyl acetonate (CAA) as oxidizing agent and sodium borohydride (NaBH4) as reducing agent.

Hydroxyl terminated natural rubber (HTNR) was prepared from deproteinized natural rubber (DPNR) via oxidative degradation method in toluene at 80 ?, in the presence of cobalt (II) acetyl acetonate (CAA) as oxidizing agent and sodium borohydride (NaBH4) as reducing agent.

Subsequently, graphene oxide (GO) was grafted onto HTNR structure for the improvement of thermal property using tetrahydrofuran (THF) as solvent with GO loading of 5 and 10 wt%. The degree of crosslinking was determined based on the residue analysis from thermal gravimetry analysis (TGA) and revealed almost no grafting occurs for HTNR-g-GO of 5 wt% GO while HTNR-g-GO for 10 wt% GO resulted in 8.5 % grafting.
