What is it about?
Latex collected in the morning would produce the same quality of rubber compound compared to latex collected on the midday. Unless the latex would be used for a high-quality product, the latex could be collected anytime.

Why is it important?
Our study indicated that the time collection did not affect compound quality. Others factor such as the coagulant and the filler might be more crucial than the source of the latex.
Perspectives
A great experience to collaborate with researchers from other disciplines. Although we possess different backgrounds, we work together to test our hypothesis about the effect of time collection on the compound quality.
