Characteristics of natural rubber/latex compound waste (NR/LCW) blends in the perspective of shoe soles application

Majalah Kulit, Karet, dan Plastik, 2019
Being difficult to degrade, latex compound waste (LCW) should be handled carefully. In this study the possibility of application of LCW for shoe sole was evaluated. LCW was derived from latex-based industry from local factory. It was blended with natural

Sensory plasticity in a socially plastic bee [PDF]

Journal of Evolutionary Biology, 2022
AbstractThe social Hymenoptera have contributed much to our understanding of the evolution of sensory systems. Attention has focussed chiefly on how sociality and sensory systems have evolved together. In the Hymenoptera, the antennal sensilla are important for optimizing the perception of olfactory social information.
