First you have to gather your latex from the rubber trees using a traditional process called rubber tapping.
Compounding mixing molding and casting and finally vulcanization.
1 mastication when the elastomer is sheared and the molecules are broken down to give easier flow 2 mixing usually carried out immediately after mastication when additives are incorporated 3 shaping of the viscous mass for example by extrusion or molding and 4 curing when the polymer molecules become.
At approximately 2 321 per ton the natural rubber market involved about 22 5 billion in 2007 source.
In this beginning stage pre heating takes place in the rubber forcing the rubber to flow through channels.
Synthetic rubber derives from molecular polymers.
Transfer molding is a natural progression in development to limit the disadvantages of compression molding.
The process starts out with a blank being loaded in the chamber which is then distributed into several cavities.
It takes several quite distinct steps to make a product out of natural rubber.
