Rubber, Its Production, Chemistry and Synthesis in the Light of Recent Research: A Practical Handbook for the Use of Rubber Cultivators, Chemists, Economists and Others (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Rubber, Its Production, Chemistry and Synthesis in the Light of Recent Research: A Practical Handbook for the Use of Rubber Cultivators, Chemists, Economists and Others To emphasise the great interest which attaches at the present time to all questions relating to rubber is unnecessary. During recent years this raw material has taken a position of very considerable and increasing importance in the industrial life of the world, as will be at once evident upon consideration of the somewhat dry statistics which we shall have occasion to quote. One result of the tremendous rise in price which occurred in 1910 as the result of attempts to control the market for this product, has been to establish, as matters of every-day concern, the study of planting problems, and researches on the synthesis of rubber. We thought that it would be of interest to collect into a single volume the scattered accounts of the work and views of various writers on the subject which have been published in a number of journals, some of which are not easy to procure, adding to these our own observations. We have sought in these pages to refer, as far as possible, to everything relating either to the cultivation or to the modern chemistry of rubber. The first section of the book deals with natural rubber, attention being especially devoted to the study of plantation rubber, the appearance of which on the market has had unexpected results. The large amount of capital invested in the various exploiting companies, and the great number of the latter, are sufficient in themselves to justify the prominence we have given to this first section, were it only to correct, by means of the statistical information and costs of production repeatedly given, ideas - often absurdly incorrect - which are daily echoed by the financial reviews. In this section we have also found a place, in keeping with their daily increasing importance, for the resinous rubbers, and for reclaimed rubber. The second section
