About this book
This book is a complete guide to epoxidized natural rubber covering from the epoxidation chemistry, production process, raw rubber and compound properties, mixing recommendations as its applications in tire, engineering, general and industrial rubber goods, latex based products such as adhesive, foam and paint as well as sustainability or life cycle analysis of ENR rubber. Hence, it is useful for readers either from the industry which looking for specific product application and properties, or scientists and academicians working on their research using the ENR in their study for reference and guidance.

About the editors
Dr Fatimah Rubaizah Mohd Rasdi is currently heading the Advancement and Innovation of Specialty Materials Unit under the Technology and Engineering Division in Malaysian Rubber Board. She holds a Bachelor of Chemical Engineering (Hons) from Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) and obtained her PhD from Newcastle University, United Kingdom in 2014. Her thesis was entitled ‘Continuous Screening using Mesoscale Oscillatory Baffled Reactor’. She later graduated with Masters of Business Administration in 2020 from UNISEL, Malaysia. Her research interests and expertise include production and processing of specialty rubber materials, especially epoxidised natural rubber and deprotenised natural rubber. She is also actively involved in standardsdevelopment at both the local and international levels. She has presented papers at national and international conferences on topics related to process intensification and specialty rubbers coupled with publications various journal.
Dr Veronica Charlotte is a senior research officer attached to the Publications and Library Unit under the Support Services Division of the Malaysian Rubber Board since 2005. Prior to joining MRB, she earned a B.Eng (Hons) in Biochemical Engineering in 2004 from the University of Wales Swansea, in the UK. She gained an insider perspective of the publishing process in her role as editor of MRB publications, besides first-hand experience working with authors, reviewers and fellow editors within the discipline. Drawing on this, she pursued a doctorate and graduated with a PhD in Applied Linguistics from the University of Nottingham Malaysia in 2019. Her thesis was entitled “Publication of Rubber Research Articles: Investigating a Discourse Event from a Macro Genre Perspective” and focused on the specific context where the authors themselves are located. The research findings corroborated evolution of a research article from cradle to grave and involvement of gatekeepers within the publishing process before the ultimate readership can be reached. She has since published both technical and conference papers as well as feature articles in various volumes, in addition to a book chapter in the M.A.K Haliday Library Functional Linguistics Series on Specialized Discourses and Their Readerships, edited by David Banks and Emilia Di Martino. Her expertise and passion are dedicated to science and scientific publications in particular, traversing journal research articles, various periodicals, monographs and books.
