INFLUENCE OF THE VARIATION OF LATEX CLONE ON THE MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF THE RADIATION VULCANIZED NATURAL RUBBER LATEX FILM

摘要

The mechanical properties of radiation vulcanized natural rubber latex of various clones were evaluated and compared. The dependences of the properties of latex film on the green strength and on the type of clone were discussed. The green strength of the latex film varies from one clone to another and the tensile strength of the film depends on the green strength to a considerable extent. The effects of radiation dose and leaching on the properties of latex film were reported.
