A series of experiments were therfore carried out to investigate the possibility of recycling these glove rejects and using them as a blend or a filler in the manufactures of rubber products. The results of the experiments indicate that appraciable quantity of recycled glove waste can be blended with NR to give properties comparable to that obtained from NR alone.
