AbstractIn general, the main compositions of porcelain and bone china composed of 54-65%wt silica (SiO2), 23-34% wt alumina (Al2O3) and 0.2-0.7%wt calcium oxide (CaO) suitable for preparation high quality ceramic products such as soft-hard porcelain products for teeth and bones, bioceramics, IC substrate and magneto-optoelectroceramics. The quality of ceramic hand mold is depended on raw material and its properties (pH, ionic strength, solid-liquid surface tension, particle size distribution, specific surface area, porosity, density, microstructure, weight ratio between solid and water, drying time, and firing temperatures). The suitable firing conditions for porcelain and bone china hand-mold preparation were firing at 1270°C for 10 h which resulted in superior working molds for making latex films from natural and synthetic rubber. The obtained fired porcelain hand molds at 1270°C for 10 h provided good chemical durability (10%NaOH, 5%HCl and 10%wtNaCl), low thermal expansion coefficient (5.8570 × 10−6 (°C−1)), good compressive (179.40 MPa) and good flexural strength (86 MPa). While thermal expansion coefficient, compressive and flexural strength of obtained fired bone china hand molds are equal to 6.9230 × 10−6 (°C−1), 128.40 and 73.70 MPa, respectively, good acid-base-salt resistance, a smooth mold surface, and easy hand mold fabrication. Both obtained porcelain and bone china hand molds are a low production cost, making them suitable for natural and synthetic rubber latex glove formation.

Abstract Progress has proceeded at a good rate since the close of the Government Program in the spring of 1955. Improved latexes have been made, and the technology of manufacture and of application has advanced. Also progress has been made in fundamental latex research. Some of the newer latexes representing the more important advances are those involving functonal groups derived from the use of unsaturated monomers such as those containing amino groups and carboxy groups in the polymerization system, those from solid rubbers by the solvent emulsion technique, and those of higher solids content including the agglomerated latexes giving 68 per cent minimum solids at low viscosity. Some of the applications of greatest growth are : 1. Carpet backing involving both sulfur curing and so-called self-curing (noncured) elastomer latexes. The latter obtain strength from polar groups including functional (carboxyl) groups and/or fairly high styrene content. 2. Foam sponge backed carpets. In 1954 it was suggested that synthetic rubber latexes would have a permanent place in our economy. This has now come to pass, and natural latex is decreasing in volume compared to total synthetic rubber latex consumption. It now appears that by forming a latex from cis polyisoprene (synthetic natural rubber) and adding it to our list of latexes, that our country could probably become independent of the natural product.

Abstract In emulsion polymerization the number and size of the latex particles govern not only the colloidal behavior of the reacting system but also the rate at which conversion of the monomer progresses. Because of the importance of these factors a wide variety of synthetic latexes have been studied with the electron microscope. The changes in the latex particles—from swollen monomer-polymer particles at low conversion to the final latex particles after removal of the unreacted monomer—have been observed for a typical SBR system. The effects of various post polymerization treatments on the size and size distribution of the latex particles have also been observed.
