In the present work, rubber magnetic composites were prepared by incorporation of strontium ferrite into rubber matrices based on natural rubber (NR) and acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR). The sulfur and peroxide curing systems were introduced in cross-linking of rubber matrices. The research was aimed at the evaluation of magnetic filler content and type of curing system on the cross-link density, physical–mechanical and magnetic properties of prepared composites. The relationship between the composition of elastomers and cross-link structure within the rubber matrices, formed by applying different curing systems, was under investigation through strain–stress behavior of tested materials. The achieved results showed that ferrite behaves as a reinforcing filler in peroxide-cured composites based on NR, and in both, sulfur as well as peroxide-cured composites based on NBR. The results also demonstrated that the cross-linking degree and the type of cross-link structure as well as the composition of rubber matrices, to a large extent, influence the property spectrum of tested composite systems.
