The oxidative degradation of deproteinized natural rubber (DPNR) using cobalt bis(acetyl acetonate) in the presence of different alcohols and various reaction time; followed by reduction with sodium borohydride (NaBH4) for the synthesis of hydroxyl terminated liquid natural rubbers (HTNRs) was carried out. The synthesis of HTNRs from natural rubber is particularly important as an alte... https://www.bempresas.com/
