History of Natural rubber in Malaysia Surely, the name of natural rubber is very familiar to your ears, you have heard its name from this and that many times, or you have even bought products of this material. Also called Amazon rubber, it is a polymer from the family of organic compounds of isoprene, which includes impurities from other organic […]
Styrene butadiene rubber Styrene butadiene rubber is widely used in various industries and as ordinary rubber. This material is a cheap elastomer that is used for general purposes and in some cases replaces rubber. The reason for the success of this type of composite rubber is its various properties and many applications. Also, this material is the only example that […]
Malaysia, the world’s biggest rubber gloves manufacturer ,our country is racing to increase production since pandemic’s started close a supply gap , that it warns could last until into 2023. The Malaysian Rubber Glove Manufacturers Association (Margma) said on Monday (Mar 15) the country was in an oversold position of 160 billion gloves. “The lead time currently is about seven […]
Technology will aid environment to improve efficiency Malaysia has developed a technology based on which is possible to analyze and diagnose the disease in images of para trees to produce more standard Malaysian rubber. This is image of improvement of machinery to gain more enlightenment in development. How technology works The development of this technology shows the high sensitivity of […]
Oil and economy The oil industry is one of the most effective and largest industries in the world. In addition to being a major source of energy in today’s world, oil also plays an important role in determining the level of national power and international prestige of different countries. Benchmark U.S. crude oil prices dived into negative territory on Monday, […]
Differences in the production of synthetic rubber and natural rubber Synthetic rubbers are obtained by polymerizing various petrochemicals known as monomers. Some examples are: Sterin butadiene rubber (SBR) obtained by cross-polymerization of strain and butadiene, Butyl rubber (IIR) which is a synthetic rubber obtained by polymerization of isobutylene with isoprene, NB nitrile rubber Which is an oil-resistant synthetic rubber obtained […]
Special space rubber polyisoprene and polybutadiene The discovery that the Ziegler-Nata (Lithium alkyl) catalyst catalyzes the polymerization of isoprene or butadiene in such a way that the cis structure is mainly obtained made it possible to simulate natural rubber by synthesis. Polyisoprene (IR) rubber, which is quite similar to natural rubber, is even superior in some respects such as better […]
Malaysia controls almost 90% of the world’s rubber industry. According to the Malaysian Rubber Council, the country’s exports in the first half of 2021 increased by 150% compared to the same period last year. Rubber is used in latex products such as medical gloves, which have increased dramatically with the spread of the corona epidemic. Malaysia Rubber Council announced the […]
The specification of natural rubber or synthetic rubber has been tested, and the results are published in a book of ASTM standards.
Natural rubber Today’s tires are a combination of synthetic tires and natural tires made from rubber trees. But researchers have succeeded in extracting a substance from the dandelion plant that is used to make tires. Dandelions are practically unused plants except for use in a variety of salads, herbal drinks and some beverages. At least until now. But a Russian […]
