Scleroglucan Production by Microbes and Downstream Processing
Abstract: Polymer based synthetic petroleum and plant natural polysaccharides do have the drawback of limited sources, as well as the latter's non-biodegradability. Eco-friendly, low-cost, and standardised microbial polysaccharides, on the other hand, offer a viable solution to this problem. They drew international recognition due to their original and distinctive physical and chemical propertiesas well as a diverse spectrum of industrial applications, the majority of which are rapidly becoming economically competitive. Scleroglucan, …

Green Routes for Modification of Cure Characteristics and Mechanical Properties of Rubber Compound
Abstract: Compounding of rubber is very crucial to make the raw rubber suitable for its end use. Term Compounding of rubber refers to the selection and mixing the different ingredients that fulfil the processing, performance, cost requirements of finished rubber products. The compounding ingredients include fillers, reinforcements, plasticizers, curatives, accelerators, stabilizers etc. The curatives play key role in the formation of crosslink or vulcanisation. Since Ionic level (IL) has very low …
