Mangosteen peel powder (MPP) was used as an antioxidant in natural rubber (standard Malaysian rubber [SMR] L). Natural rubber compounds with various types of antioxidants (i.e., MPP; N‐isopropyl‐N'‐phenyl‐P‐phenylenediamine [IPPD]; 2,2,4‐trimethyl‐1,2‐dihydroquinoline [TMQ], and 2,6‐di‐tert‐butyl‐p‐cresol [BHT]) were prepared. The SMR L compounds were cured at 150°C according to their cure time. Curing characteristics, tensile and aging properties, thermal behavior, and morphological properties of the SMR L compounds were studied. Curing and tensile properties obtained by SMR L compounds with MPP are comparable to SMR L compounds with commercial antioxidants. It was found that the addition of MPP into SMR L compounds improved the aging property of the compound. J. VINYL ADDIT. TECHNOL., 23:86–92, 2017. © 2015 Society of Plastics Engineers
