Stimuli‐responsive elastomers are smart materials for sensing applications. Natural rubber (NR) is a renewable elastomer with excellent elasticity and fatigue resistance. In this work, a straightforward method for the preparation of pH‐responsive crosslinked materials from NR and poly(4‐vinylpyridine) (P4VP) via free radical crosslinking reaction using benzoyl peroxide (BPO) as an initiator is described...
We investigated the synthesis of a pH‐responsive graft copolymer of natural rubber and 4‐vinylpyridine. The grafting reaction was carried out using deproteinized natural rubber (DPNR) latex, with potassium persulfate as a free radical initiator. The pH responsiveness of the graft copolymer was investigated using water swelling and contact angle measurements, and was compared with that of pure DPNR...
