N. John et R. Joseph, STUDIES ON WOOD-TO-WOOD BONDING ADHESIVES BASED ON NATURAL-RUBBER LATEX, Journal of adhesion science and technology, 11(2), 1997, pp. 225-232
Natural rubber latex-based adhesives were prepared for wood-to-wood bo
nding. The effects of prevulcanization, and varying amounts of ammoniu
m caseinate, carboxymethyl cellulose, cooked starch, and phenol formal
dehyde resin on adhesion were studied. The water resistance of the bon
ds was tested in cold and hot water and was found to be superior compa
red with commercial latex-based adhesives.
