Optimum conditions for the rapid, efficient, nondestructive determination of rubber producing potential in guayule (Parthenium argentatum) were established. The rubber producing potential may be defined as the ability of the plant material to synthesize rubber from a precursor under specified conditions. To achieve this, stem slices taken from the first 5 centimeters of branches were incubated ...

Natural rubber was extracted from the fig tree (Ficus carica) cultivated in Korea as part of a survey of rubber producing plants. Fourier transform infrared and (13)C nuclear magnetic resonance analysis of samples prepared by successive extraction with acetone and benzene confirmed that the benzene-soluble residues are natural rubber, cis-1,4-polyisoprene. The rubber content in the latex of fig...

a newly developed natural rubber deproteinization process produces deproteinized natural rubber (dpnr) wastewater as an intermediate product containing a high concentration of sodium dodecyl sulfate (sds) and rubber. in this study, a novel process to recover the residual rubber and energy as methane from dpnr wastewater was developed. as a pretreatment, sds and residual rubber in dpnr wastewate...

the experiment was to study the effects of replacing soybean meal by rubber seed meal on growth, economics and carcass characteristics of broiler. a total of 150 day-old commercial broiler (cobb-500) was reared for a period of 35 days. there were five treatments including t0 (without rubber seed meal), t1 (10% rubber seed meal), t2 (20% rubber seed meal), and t3 (30% rubber seed meal) and t4 (4...

The rubber compound is processed with a strainer machine to filter out contaminants as material for making products. process of filtering the an extrusion-based done heat soften and flow through screen. This condition will increase risk dying (scorching) in subsequent processing compound. multivariate linear regression model more than one correlated response variable or predictor variables. pur...
