DRY RUBBER CONTENT

Latex is usually sold either in the form of a dry rubber sheet or concentrated rubber solution. The dry rubber content (DRC) is defined as the mass in grams of rubber present in 100 g of latex. The price of the field latex depends solely on dry rubber content (DRC). Therefore, it is essential to know the amount of DRC in the latex before trading. The Oven drying method is employed to determine the DRC in the given samples.
