Effects of latex type and processed-mica waste loading on the structural and thermo-physical properties of natural rubber latex foam composites

Effects of latex type and processed-mica waste loading on the structural and thermo-physical properties of natural rubber latex foam composites

Mica waste, a type of commercial waste produced in bulk quantities by the mica mining industry, was processed and added to Natural Rubber Latex Foams (NRLF) made of centrifuged and creamed latex. Following the Dunlop method, NRLF composites with various Processed Mica Waste (PMW) loadings (0, 2, 4,...
