Compressive Stress-Strain and Rebound Resilience Properties of Deproteinized Natural Rubber Latex Foam (2023)
Journal Article
Ramli, R., Chai, A. B., Kamaruddin, S., Ho, J. H., & De Focatiis, D. S. (2023). Compressive Stress-Strain and Rebound Resilience Properties of Deproteinized Natural Rubber Latex Foam. Key Engineering Materials, 962, 39-44. https://doi.org/10.4028/p-a5zmst

Deproteinized natural rubber (DPNR) latex is a modified version of natural rubber (NR) latex that is hypoallergenic and odorless when used in products. However, due to the lack of studies in this field, there are relatively few DPNR latex foam produc...
