How to improve natural rubber property?

Natural rubber (NR) is valuable material of natural origination with growing demand worldwide. Thus, the methods for NR property improvement are continuously developed. The article will be focused on methods of chemical modification of NR and the use of improved traditional fillers such as carbon black (CB) and silica.

What is Rubber Division ACS?

We are a hybrid open-access journal, publishing peer-reviewed research covering chemistry, chemical engineering, materials science and technological developments in rubber and allied substances. Complimentary online access is included with Rubber Division ACS membership. Paid subscriptions are available to non-members, libraries and companies.

What are the latest developments in the rubber industry?

some of the recent advancements and catalysts related to the rubber industry, including new-generation metal complexes and the fascinating process of ethanol-to-butadiene conversion. In the rubber industry, current research is explored which support increased catalytic high stereoselectivity and activity.

When did rubber start using catalysts?

The rubber industry’s leaning on catalysts started with the discovery of vulcanisation in 1839 by Charles Goodyear. Vulcanisation is a chemical reaction, which increase the properties of synthetic (SR) or natural rubber (NR), making it more elastic and durable beyond a wider range of temperatures.
