Natural Rubber Biosynthesis in Plants

2012
Rubber biosynthesis in plants is a fascinating biochemical system, which evolved at the dawn of the dicotyledoneae and is present in at least four of the dictolydonous superorders. Rubber biosynthesis is catalyzed by a membrane complex in a monolayer membrane envelope, requires two distinct substrates and a divalent cation cofactor, and produces a high-

Properties of natural rubber latex-compatibilized natural rubber/recycled chloroprene rubber blends

Journal of Elastomers & Plastics, 2016
The effect of natural rubber latex (NRL) on the properties of natural rubber/recycled chloroprene rubber (NR/rCR) blends was investigated. The properties of NR/rCR-NRL blends were compared with those of NR/rCR blends without the NRL. The addition of NRL showed an improvement in tensile strength, elongation at break, fatigue life, and swelling ...

Lignin Based Functional Additives for Natural Rubber

ACS Sustainable Chemistry and Engineering, 2018
In this work, the possibility to conveniently exploit lignin as a functional additive for natural rubber was pursued following two strategies. The first was based on the fractionation of lignin: extraction with organic solvents is suitable to produce ...

Reinforcement of natural rubber

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 2002
AbstractIn this article, we report on recent investigations on filled natural rubber. These investigations include a mechanical characterization as well as a molecular analysis based on measurements of chain orientation. It is demonstrated that at intermediate strains, the increase in the moduli can be explained by the inclusion of rigid particles in ...

Dual Cross-linked Epoxidized Natural Rubber Reinforced by Tunicate Cellulose Nanocrystals with Improved Strength and Extensibility

ACS Sustainable Chemistry and Engineering, 2018
Cellulose nanocrystals have been proved to be ideal reinforcing fillers for rubber. However, the increase in tensile strength always accompanies a reduction in extensibility.
