Effect of banana skins filler on thermal behavior of natural rubber latex films

Effect of banana skins filler on thermal behavior of natural rubber latex films

This study is done to produce latex film with 0 %, 5 %, 10 %, 15 % and 20 % banana skins as filler and to investigate the effect of banana skin on thermal behavior of natural rubber latex films. Banana skin contains a lot of minerals, sugar, starch, protein and so on. The bio-based material such a...
