Abstract Natural rubber chlorinated to the maximum degree is a homogeneous product in chemical composition and likewise in chemical structure. It is a chemically saturated compound, with a chain structure having the cyclohexane group, C10HxCl7, as the base unit. Such a structure is conceivable only if x has a value of 11, which cannot be determined precisely by any of the methods of organic analysis.
