Study on the Structure and Properties of Ribbed Smoked Sheet Prepared from Two Typical Rubber Tree Clones
To understand the influence of rubber tree clones on the quality consistency of ribbed smoked sheet (RSS)
two typical rubber tree clones
IAN873 and Reyan73397
whose inherent molecular weight distribution (MWD
0
) belonged to the unimodal MWD
0
and bimodal MWD
0
respectively
were selected in this study to prepare four RSS samples according to the same process in the latex stage. Analysis of the intrinsic structure and key non-rubber components of raw rubber showed that the weight average and number average relative molecular weight
gel content
Mooney viscosity
and initial plastic value of the RSS samples prepared using IAN873 were significantly higher than those prepared using Reyan73397. And the protein and lipid contents of IAN873 were also higher than those prepared using Reyan73397. Analysis of the properties of the vulcanizates revealed that IAN873 exhibited a higher effective crosslinking density
leading to increased stress at definite elongation and tensile strength
as well as reduced dynamic heat generation and permanent compression deformation. Overall
rubber tree clones have a significant influence on the structure and properties of RSS
which is the key factor affecting the quality consistency of RSS.
