Latex

What is natural latex?

Natural latex is a product obtained from the sap of rubber trees and is prepared for use in various industries during a process. Most of the natural latexes have a white color that is found naturally in nature.

Rubber Manufacturing

This product is so widely used that its use can be seen in various industries. One of its main uses is in the production of natural rubber.
Tire is one of the most important parts in rubber manufacturing, adding natural latex can improve the chemical resistance and mechanical properties of tires and rubber; It also creates a lot of stability in them.
One of the most important features that this material gives to natural rubber is high resistance to impact, water, compression and low temperature.

coloring

Another product that can be made with natural latex is paint. Latex-based paints can be used in any type of weather and because they do not contain any toxic substances or heavy metals, these paints can easily be used in a child’s bedroom or living room.
Also, its elasticity makes the paint coating not crack over time and the color of the surface does not disappear with temperature changes.

Medical industry to produce latex gloves

The use of natural latex is seen as an important material in the production of medical products, including latex gloves.
These gloves are disposable and due to their high strength against tearing, softness and very good resistance to chemicals and alcohol, they can be used as surgical gloves in the medical industry.
In addition to medicine, these gloves are also used in laboratories, cooking and hairdressing.

Glue making

Due to the elasticity and adhesion that latex has, its use in the adhesive industry cannot be ignored.
Polymer adhesives produced on the basis of latex are very resistant to any type of chemicals, moisture and water, and they can be used in places with high humidity.
These adhesives are used for sealing and sealing and are very resistant to temperature changes. Also, their adhesion strength is very high and it is used for installing ceramics, flooring, tiles or even as an additive to increase the strength of mortar.

In addition to the important industry of glue, paint, rubber and medicine, natural latexes are used in the production of sports clothes, including swimwear and sports shoes, balloons, tubes, all kinds of cosmetics, furniture covers, mattresses and other sleep products.
