Preparation and Characterization of TiO<sub>2</sub>-Coated Hollow Glass Beads for Functionalization of Deproteinized Natural Rubber Latex via UVA-Activated Photocatalytic Degradation

Preparation and Characterization of TiO<sub>2</sub>-Coated Hollow Glass Beads for Functionalization of Deproteinized Natural Rubber Latex via UVA-Activated Photocatalytic Degradation

The photochemical degradation of natural rubber (NR) is a prevalent method used to modify its inherent properties. Natural rubber, predominantly derived from the <i>Hevea Brasiliensis</i> tree, exhibits an exceptionally high molecular weight (MW), often reaching a million daltons (Da). T...
