Classification of the Crosslink Density Level of Para Rubber Thick Film of Medical Glove by Using Near-Infrared Spectral Data.

Classification of the crosslink density level of para rubber medical gloves by using near-infrared spectral data combined with machine learning is the first time reported in this paper. The spectra of medical glove samples with different crosslink densities acquired by an ultra-compact portable MicroNIR spectrometer were correlated with their crosslink density levels, which were referencely evaluated by the toluene swell index (TSI). The machine learning protocols used to classify the 3 groups of TSI were specified as less than 80% TSI, 80-88% TSI, and more than 88% TSI.

The influence of processing parameters of parboiled rice on its physiochemical and texture properties.

The impact of different parboiled rice process conditions on physical (whiteness and yellowness), chemical (amylose and fat contents), and texture (hardness and toughness) properties was studied. The parboiled rice was produced from the Suphanburi 1 variety. The correlation between chemical and texture properties was also analyzed.

Effects of vibration, vacuum, and material thickness on infrared drying of Linn.

Infrared (IR), vibratory bed assisted infrared (VIR), vacuum infrared (VC-IR), and vibratory bed assisted vacuum infrared (VC-VIR) drying of Linn. (CQ) were conducted. The objective was to investigate the effects of vibration, vacuum, and material thickness on IR drying of CQ.
