This research aims to develop the natural-rubber floor tiles mixed with high fineness ethylene vinyl acetate plastic wastes (EVA plastics) from the factories. The study use natural-rubber STR 20 at 100 phr with various contents of EVA plastics (e.g. 0 5 10 20 40 and 80 phr) and then mixed with chemical substance at constant ratio include zinc oxide at 5 phr stearic acid at 2 phr mercaptobenzothiazole at 0.5 phr diphenyl guanidine at 0.2 phr and sulfur at 3 phr. The samples are ground by two-roll mill and formed by compression molding at 150 degree Celsius with 30x30x0.2 cm of dimension. The properties of the natural-rubber floor tiles are tested under ASTM standard. From the results it is found that the natural-rubber floor tiles mixed with 10 phr of EVA plastics is the suitable ratio for using as the rubber floor tiles in building. This ratio can increase the hardness tensile strength and wear resistant properties and decrease the density and thermal insulation properties when compare to the natural-rubber floor tiles without EVA plastic.

This research aims to develop the Para-rubber floor tiles mixed with ethylene vinyl acetate plastic wastes (EVA plastics) from the factories. The study use Para-rubber STR 20 at 100 phr with various contents of EVA plastics (e.g. 0 5 10 20 40 and 80 phr) and then mixed with chemical substance at constant ratio include zinc oxide at 5 phr stearic acid at 2 phr sulfur at 3 phr mercaptobenzothiazole at 0.5 phr and diphenyl guanidine at 0.2 phr. The samples are ground by two-roll mill and formed by compression molding at 150 degree Celsius with 30x30x0.2 cm of dimension. The properties of the Para-rubber floor tiles are tested under ASTM standard. From the results it is found that the Para-rubber floor tiles mixed with 10 phr of EVA plastics is the suitable ratio for using as the rubber floor tiles and rubber wall tiles in building. This ratio can increase the hardness and wear resistant properties and decrease the density and thermal insulation properties when compare to the Para-rubber floor tiles without EVA plastic.

This research aims to study the properties of PMA asphalt shingle roof mixed withnatural latex by various contents of natural latex to PMA asphalt (e.g. 0.0 0.5 1.0 1.52.0 2.5 and 3.0 by weight). The heat pot was used to mix the mixture with lower than160 degree of Celsius. The PMA asphalt shingle roof mixed with natural latex sampleswere cast in 20 x 20 x 0.5 centimeter of dimension and added the fiber plate and stoneflake to reinforce and decorate the roof plate. The properties of the roof plates weretested under ASTM standard. From the results it is found that all samples can resist thetemperature higher than 200 degree of Celsius and the increasing of natural latex (lowerthan 1.5 of ratio) can improve the hardness property while the tensile strength andelongation properties are decreased. However when the amount of natural latexincreased to 2.0 of ratio the tensile strength are increased. After compare the PMA asphalt shingle roof mixed with natural latex (2.0 of ratio) and the general shingle roof found that the researched shingle roof can use as well as the general shingle roof and more tightly. The research results can develop to the PMA shingle roof products and replace the import shingle roofs.
