NR-g-MA was prepared using an internal mixer. Fourier Transform Infrared
Spectroscopy (FTIR) and a titration method were used to confirm the MA grafted
onto NR molecule and to determine the level of MA grafted onto the NR molecule.
The highest grafting level of NR-g-MA was obtained with maleic anhydride content
of 6 phr and dicumyl peroxide content of 1 phr
