Natural rubber (NR) is an eminent sustainable material and is the only agricultural product
among various rubbers. Use of nanofillers in NR matrix as a reinforcing agent has gained …

Abstract 4D printing, the integration of time-dependent shape morphing ability and additive
manufacturing technologies, has opened up new possibilities for creating dynamic and …

Montmorillonite is a natural clay mineral linked with the smectite group of a dioctahedral 2: 1
phyllosilicate formed by two tetrahedral sheets along with one octahedral sheet. In …

The reinforcing ability of the fillers results in significant improvements in properties of
polymer matrix at extremely low filler loadings as compared to conventional fillers. In view of …

The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of nano-clays as active and intelligent
(A&I) food nanopackaging materials. Nanopackaging is a structured system that allows the …

The obvious polarity difference between the carbon black (CB) and the natural rubber (NR)
causes the CB hard to be dispersed in the NR matrix when the addition amount is large. In …

Abstract As the Internet of Things advances, gesture recognition emerges as a prominent
domain in human-machine interaction (HMI). However, interactive wearables based on …

The original form of Natural Rubber (NR) has limited usage despite its excellent elasticity
and reversible deformability. Further improvement of its undesired properties, ie low …

In the recent years, halloysite (Hal) nanotube has emerged as promising naturally occurring
filler for the development of commercially viable advanced rubber composites. The present …

Reduced graphene oxide (rGO) is one of the graphene derivatives that can be employed to
engineer bioactive and/or electroactive scaffolds. However, the influence of its low and …
