Effect of banana skin on biodegradable NR latex
The study presents the effect of banana skin on the biodegradable natural rubber latex which is widely used in the production of glove and has shown one bad effect which is allergy toward the user. This study will be carried out with introducing banana skin into natural rubber latex. The latex films...

| description | The study presents the effect of banana skin on the biodegradable natural rubber latex which is widely used in the production of glove and has shown one bad effect which is allergy toward the user. This study will be carried out with introducing banana skin into natural rubber latex. The latex films are prepared with 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20%
banana skin filler. Effect on banana skin loading on natural rubber latex properties was investigated. Natural rubber latex film was buried in soil for 2 weeks and their biodegradability effect is monitored. The degradation is determined by observation which is the physical appearance before and after the process and also characterization by weight increment. Then, the effects of aging test on the latex films are also tested. After aging test, the microscopic behaviour was investigated and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Besides, the tensile strength of the latex films after aging test is also tested. The expected result is to see that banana skin protein will aid in the biodegradation process which will help the NRL to be composed at shorter time compare to the control sample. |
