摘要:This research is performed to enquire about the influence of Fly Ash (FA) imposition in the Tire Reclaimed Rubber (RR) and consequently the variations obtained in the formed reclaimed rubber in terms of its mechanical properties. The disregarded waste tires are produced every year in abundance coherent to the increasing sale of vehicles. As potentially a threat to the environment and to obtain cost value from them, these are recycled. Fly Ash is also produced in abundance in power plants and being a waste product, is disposed off. In this paper, one of the processes of the recycling of these waste tires is the ‘Reclamation of Rubber’. This research discusses the use of Fly Ash as filler in the reclamations in the phr ranges of 8, 12 and 20 and its corresponding effects on the mechanical properties (such as tensile strength, % elongation, hardness, specific gravity, Mooney viscosity) of the rubber composites formed there off. The hardness and the specific gravity are found to be the most in case for 20 % reinforced fly ash composite and least for the 8 % reinforced fly ash composite. Other properties such as tensile strength, % elongation and Mooney viscosity are found best in case of 8 % fly ash reinforced sample and worst for the 20 % fly ash reinforced sample.
