Rubber appears to be a metabolic dead-end because there have been no findings of enzymes capable of breaking down the rubber in latex. The exact termination reaction of the rubber polymerization is not known. Different end-groups have been detected by NMR in rubber purified from a range of species, indicating that molecule dephosphorylation and release may involve esterification, cyclization, or hydrolysis [262]. 

The carboxyl group reacts with metal oxides, hydroxides, or salts to form rosin soaps or salts (resinates). The soaps of alkali metals, such as sodium and potassium, are useful in paper sizing and as emulsifiers in rubber polymerization.

The common name of this compound is isoprene and its ICJPAC name is 2-methyl-l, 3-butadiene. Polymerization of isoprene gives polyisoprene, natural rubber. Polymerization may lead to cis or trans versions of polyisoprene. 

The major emulsion processes include the copolymerization of styrene and butadiene to form SBR rubber, polymerization of chloroprene (Fig. t -4) to produce neoprene rubbers, and the synthesis of latex paints and adhesives based mainly on vinyl acetate and acrylic copolymers. The product is either used directly in emulsion form as a paint or else the surfactants used in the polymerization are left in the final, coagulated rubber product. 

Use Synthetic rubber polymerization and textile dyeing and stripping agent.

Organohalogens are widely used in industry and society. Chloromethane is used as a solvent in rubber polymerization. Bromomethane is an important fumigant the related halons (CBrClF2 and CBrFj) are better fire extin-guishants than carbon dioxide.

Worldwide consumption of synthetic rubber is about 11-12 million metric tons. New synthetic rubber polymerization technologies replacing older plants and increasing world consumption are reasons for new production facilities being built. See also specific synthetic rubbers. 

The subsequent chain elongation step was confirmed to proceed via an addition of IPP to polyisoprenyl diphosphate to form isoprene units in cis configuration. Rubber polymerization is catalysed by rubber transferase (EC 2.5.1.20), a cw-prenyltransferase, and requires divalent cations such as Mg " or Mn as a cofactor. The proposed mechanism of rubber biosynthesis is shown in Figure 2.1. 

Clay reinforcement has already been used in various polymer systems including polyamide, polypropylene, polystyrene and polycarbonate. However, the major challenges in using clay reinforcement in natural rubber are its nonpolar nature, the conventional processing methods used, such as a two-roll mill, and the high molecular weight of natural rubber polymeric chains.
