In this research, the tensile properties of polypropylene/natural rubber composite reinforced with perlite nanoparticles were studied. The mathematical modeling of analysis of variance using the surface response method was used to confirm the experimental results. The role of each materials variable and the weight percentage of natural rubber and pearlite nanoparticles on the tensile properties of the nanocomposite samples was investigated. It was observed that the values of tensile strength and elongation at break by increasing the amount of natural rubber from 20 wt.% to 40 wt.% and the constant amount of perlite nanoparticles at 3 wt.%, decreased by 14.68% (from 8.92 to 7.61 MPa) and increased by 72% (from 51.05% to 87.81%), respectively. The results obtained from the parameters optimization showed that the maximum values of tensile strength and elongation at break are 8.332 MPa and 74.38% was obtained in the sample with 3.268 wt.% of natural rubber and 4.046 wt.% of perlite nanoparticles, respectively. The scanning electron microscope images showed the positive effect of adding nanoparticles to the polypropylene/natural rubber composite due to the reduction in the size of the elastomeric phase and as a result, the increase in the tensile strength of the composite samples. Also, the proper dispersion of nanoparticles in the polymer matrix phase occurred in the sample with 5 wt.% of perlite nanoparticles and 30 wt.% of natural rubber. However, with increasing the weight percentages of nanoparticles up to 9 wt.%, some agglomerations of pearlite nanoparticles were observed in the thermoplastic phase.
