Future trends for the analysis of guayulins in guayule (Parthenium argentatum Gray) resins

open access: yesIndustrial Crops and Products, 2021
Guayule (Parthenium argentatum Gray) is a promising alternative and renewable source of natural rubber/latex. There is a general acceptance that to successfully industrialize the cultivation of guayule, it will be necessary to valorize all of its co-products, including resins, which can reach 16 % of weight of dry matter.

Rheological and Component Characterization of an Innovative Bio-Binder Using Guayule Resin in Partial and Entire Asphalt Replacement

open access: yes, 2020
Asphalt cement will not last for a long time as the world encounters a diminishment in the crude oil. For sustainable, flexible pavement development, new resources can provide a contribution to replace it partially or entirely. In this study, asphalt was

Variability in Rubber and Resin Content Within and Among Eight Guayule Cultivars [PDF]

open access: yesHortScience, 1986
Abstract Mean rubber concentration of 3-year-old guayule (Parthenium argentatum Gray) ranged from 7.37% to 9.72% among 8 cultivars. Resin concentration ranged from 4.48% to 6.69%. All cultivars were homogeneous for rubber and resin concentration, except N565. Rubber concentration was highly correlated with resin concentration.

Natural rubber biosynthesis in plants, the rubber transferase complex, and metabolic engineering progress and prospects

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 17, Issue 11, Page 2041-2061, November 2019., 2019
Summary Natural rubber (NR) is a nonfungible and valuable biopolymer, used to manufacture ~50 000 rubber products, including tires and medical gloves. Current production of NR is derived entirely from the para rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis). The increasing demand for NR, coupled with limitations and vulnerability of H. brasiliensis production systems,

Determination of the Mechanical Properties of Rubber by FT‐NIR

open access: yesJournal of Spectroscopy, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
Mechanical tests, for example, tensile and hardness tests, are usually used to evaluate the properties of rubber materials. In this work, mechanical properties of selected rubber materials, that is, natural rubber (NR), styrene butadiene rubber (SBR), nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR), and ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM), were evaluated using a ...
