In this paper, the blends of natural rubber with waste ground rubber powders have been prepared by mechano-chemical activation method. The influences of particle sizes on both processing performances and mechanical properties have been investigated. The results indicated that: the blends with waste ground rubber powders of smaller particle sizes approached to higher surface tensile and easily mechano-chemical activation, which led to the formation of complete homogenous re-vulcanization cross-linking structure and resulted in the improvements of the whole performances of the final products. The tensile strength, the elongation at break and tear strength approached to the highest value of 20.7MPa, 530% and 33.0 kN/m as the 100mesh waste ground rubber powders were used as the starting materials.
