Description
Naiqun Yao, Tao Lin, Hanbin Wang, Xiaoyan Pang, and Zhiwen Ding present a 2026 study of a reworkable rubber blend stiffened with charred collagen specks. The blend joins a brominated rubber with a meltable plastic, set by dynamic curing. Such blends can be remolded, unlike classic rubber. The team stirred in tiny specks of carbonized collagen, a waste-stream protein, into the seventy-percent rubber grade.
The specks spread well and eased the blend's inner seams. Strength rose by a marked step over the plain blend. Heat stand and stiffness also gained. After two remold cycles, stretch loss stayed small. Uses in view span car interiors, medical stoppers, and shoe parts. Waste protein thus earns a second life as a working filler.
