Anti-Freeze Stabilizer System Based On Azidated Glycerol For Natural Rubber Latex

Natural rubber latex (NRL) normally transported to any destination in colloid / liquid form. It requires large storage containers such as drums and the probability of latex leakage during transportation to happen is higher. To prevent the latex spillage, the liquid form of NRL was transform into...
