摘 要：Rubber is a mixture of organic compounds produced by caticifer cells present in certain plants. Most natural rubber is harvested from the latex obtained from certain trees, primarily the species Hevea brasiliensis. The latex extracted from the trees is processed and it turns into a rubber with exceptional mechanical properties. These properties lead to its excellent tensile, elongation, and tear-resistant nature, which has also increased its demand in numerous industries. For instance, its resilience and its tear-resistant nature have led to its continued use in the Medical industry in the manufacture of gloves. The high demand for rubber has also led to it being artificially manufactured in the industry; this type of rubber is known as synthetic rubber. Synthetic rubber is widely used in the non-medical industries such as the Tire industry, which consumes 70 percent of the world's synthetic rubber production.
