Terpenes/latex Acacia resins are usually mixtures of diterpenes. These lipid-soluble materials are used in a number of minor applications, primarily as adhesives that might be useful for manufacturing wood products. Plants containing terpenes are listed in Table 7. Some diterpenes may serve as relatively versatile precursors for synthesis of other groups of useful compounds. The most useful derivative from the terpenoids is natural rubber (from guayule, dandelion). Some industrial materials are classified as or critical to national defence. ‘strategic’ Natural rubber is one of these materials.
