Cyclization of natural rubber (NR) latex: Synthesis, characterization and application in NR compounds and as a compatibilizer in NR/acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) blends

Cyclized natural rubber (CNR) was synthesized through the acid-catalyzed reaction of natural rubber (NR) latex using sulfuric acid as a catalyst and stabilized with a non-ionic surfactant. Cyclization was evaluated by iodine numbers under varying reaction times, temperatures, and NR-to-acid ratios....
