Natural rubber processing chemicals. Natural rubber is susceptible to degradation by a wide range of bacteria. The bacteria "Streptomyces coelicolor", "Pseudomonas citronellolis", and "Nocardia" spp. are capable of degrading vulcanized natural rubber. Natural rubber Natural rubber, also called India rubber or caoutchouc, as initially produced, consists of polymers of the organic compound isoprene, with minor impurities of other organic compounds, plus water. Malaysia and Indonesia are two of the leading rubber producers. Forms of polyisoprene that are used as natural rubbers are classified as elastomers. Currently, rubber is harvested mainly in the form of the latex from the rubber tree or others.
Amount of substance are atoms in of the isotope carbon-12. This number is called the Avogadro number and has the value It is the numerical value of the Avogadro constant, which has the unit mol, and relates the molar mass of an amount of substance to its mass. Therefore, the amount of substance of a sample is calculated as the sample mass divided by the molar mass of the substance. Amount of substance appears in thermodynamic relations such as the ideal gas law, and in stoichiometric relations between reacting molecules as in the law of multiple proportions. Another unit of amount of substance
