The biodegradable gloves were then
being decomposed in soil for four weeks and the mechanical properties were assessed. The
result shows that, the mechanical properties of biodegradable gloves decreased as biodegradation
week elapses. The addition of Novel Green Additives: Bio-Add have increased the biodegradability
of NRL gloves. Novel Green Additives: Bio-Add offer an advantages to the latex based
manufactured as it proven to accelerate the biodegradation process of the latex films using existing
production line with minimal additional cost.
