A Study on the Preparation of Environmentally Friendly High-Performance Natural Rubber Using the Interaction Mechanism of Alkaline Protease and Calcium Ions.

Natural rubber (NR) is a material with a wide range of industrial and commercial applications, including agriculture, defense, transportation, and domestic use. However, the mechanical properties of natural rubber treated by traditional acid coagulation are limited, which restricts its application in high-end products. Furthermore, the wastewater generated also causes soil acidification.
