Abstract
Natural rubber field latex has been concentrated by a laboratory scale centrifuge machine to attain ISO requirements. The optimum conditions for various parameters e.g., frequency of the power source, flow rate of the latex into the machine,ring dam diameter of the separator, tot al solid content of the field latex, concentration of the preservative in the latex, have been established The characteristics of latex conc entrate were compared to those as required by ISO 2004:1974.
