Scanning electron microscopy (SEM, Hitachi S-4600) was employed to observe the distribution of the modified GNPs in the NR matrix. The samples for SEM observation were coated with platinum as the conducting material. The morphologies of the samples were observed on the surface as well as on the cross-section sample. The crystallinity of the GNPs and the GNPs/NR composite were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD, X’Pert PRO PANalytical) with a 0.15405 nm Cu Kα source. The nature of the pristine GNPs and the modified GNPs in the NR matrix was investigated using Raman spectroscopy (Horiba XploRA Plus instrument, Kyoto, Japan). The abrasion resistance results were obtained with the rotating cylindrical drum device(GOTECH GTFO12D, Tokyo, Japan) with a drum diameter of 450 mm × 450 mm, pressing force of 2.5 N, and rotating cycles of 100. The INSTRON 5582 testing machine (Norwood, MA, USA) was employed to measure the tensile and tear strength of the samples. The elongation and break properties were determined according to the ASTM D412 standard on the STROGRAPH VG5E instrument (Fukuyama, Japan).

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
