Effect of Various Alcohols and Reaction Time on the Properties of Hydroxyl Terminated Natural Rubber Synthesized via Oxidative Degradation
The oxidative degradation of deproteinized natural rubber (DPNR) using cobalt bis(acetyl acetonate) in the presence of different alcohols and various reaction time; followed by reduction with sodium borohydride Tool Set (NaBH4) for the synthesis of hydroxyl terminated liquid natural rubbers (HTNRs) was carried out.The synthesis of HTNRs from natura
