The compressive strength, corrosion-resistance and toughness were studied and discussed. The results show that SRC is corrosion-resistanet. Although the compressive strength of SRC decreases with inereasing rubber content, the toughness increases instead . Adding micro-filler will improve the compressive strength of SRC . There is a threshold value for the sulfur content, at which the compressive strength and the workability of SRC reach an optimum balance . The bond between rubber particles and surrounding sulfur is strong due to the vulcanization process that generates cross-link through S-C bonds.展开更多

We evaluated the few widely used growth functions to identify the most parsimonious and biologically reasonable model for describing the girth growth of young rubber trees based on an incomplete set of young age measurements. Monthly data for girth of immature trees (age 2 to 12 yearsi from two locations were sub- jected to modelling. Re-parameterized, unconstrained and constrained growth functions,of Richards (RM), Gompertz (GM) and the monomo- lecular 'model ^(MM) were fitted to data. Duration of growth was the firsf constraint introduced. In the stagel We attempted a population aver- age (PA) model to capture the trend in growth. The best PA model was fitted as a subject specific (SS) model. We used appropriate error vari- ance-covariance structure to account for correlation due to repeated measurements over time. Unconstrainecl functions underestimated the asymptotic maximum that did not reflective carrying capacity of the locations. Underestimafions were attributed to the partial set' of meas- urements made during the early growth phase of the trees. MM proved superior to RM and GM. In the randomcoefficient models, both Gf and Go appeared to be influenced by tree level effects. Inclusion of diagonal definite positive matrix removed the correlation between random effects. The results were similar at both locations. In the overall assessment MM appeared as the candidate model for studying the girth-age relationships in Hevea trees. Based on the fitted model we conclude that, in Hevea trees, growth rate is maintained at maximum value at to, then decreases until the final state at dG/dt 〉 0, resulting in yield curve with no period of accelerating growth. One physiological explanation is that photosynthetic activity in Hevea trees decreases as girth increases and constructive metabolism is larger than destructive metabolism.展开更多
