Intriguing Question about The Function of Stabilizer

But are stabilizers really necessary for SMA? Research done
in the United States during the 1990s revealed a 70 times higher

the same mix containing 0.3% of cellulose fibers (Brown and

SMA-Theory & Pracctice, 2011) at the beginning of 1990s
showed that even with using modified binders, fat spots often
occurred. Then trials testing modified binders with half of the
