Production and properties of natural rubber glove using sustainable benign accelerator Prog. Rubber Plast. Recycl. Technol. (IF 2.6) Pub Date : 2021-05-31 Vishantini Tangavaloo, Nor Yuliana Yuhana, Yu Lih Jiun
In natural polyisoprene glove manufacturing industries, the selection of accelerators in the curing system is mainly determined by the curing characteristics, maturation time required, cross-link density and mechanical properties of gloves. In this study, a new accelerator replacing conventional ones in a typical glove manufacturing process, was studied in order to produce free carcinogen dipped article

Reactive compatibilization of biodegradable PLA/TPU blends via hybrid nanoparticle Prog. Rubber Plast. Recycl. Technol. (IF 2.6) Pub Date : 2021-05-31 Nilay Tuccar Kilic, Buse Nur Can, Mehmet Kodal, Güralp Özkoç
In this study, the compatibilization effects of triglycidylisobutyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (TEpPOSS) on biodegradable poly(lactic acid) (PLA)/thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) blends were investigated. All blends were prepared via melt blending and PLA/TPU (80/20, 70/30, 50/50 wt%) ratio was selected as the experimental parameter. In order to predict the selective localization of TEpPOSS
