Experimental data for the magnetic properties of vulcanized natural rubber nanocomposites using vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM).

Base isolation is a technique installed to absorb any movement or vibration on the structures. The incorporation of nanocomposites into elastomer as the interesting materials especially for the active stiffness and vibration control of structural systems. A base isolator is made up of alternate layers of steel and rubber. The performance of magnetic rubber device is dependent on mechanical and magnetic properties of composite rubber materials. A vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) is an instrument to detect the magnetic properties. The article provides information on the magnetic properties corresponding to different carbon nanotubes loadings of 0%, 1%, 3% and 5% and different loading of microcarbonyl iron (MCI) i.e. 0% (B0), 10% (B10), 20% (B20) and 30% (B30) in natural rubber compound. The magnetic properties dataset described the data from compression test.
