Biodegradability of NR gloves in soil

摘要

The environmental fate of NR gloves buried in soils was studied with several synthetic alternatives for 12 months in clayey Munchong series and sandy Holyrood series soil. Residual weight recovery and loss of tensile properties, supplemented by measurements Of microbial populations and loss of film thickness were used to compare the extent of Biodegradation of the glove materials.
