Thai Origin High Ammonia Natural Rubber Latex

High Ammonia Latex Concentrate (HA Latex)

Description

High Ammonia Latex Concentrate (HA Latex)

HA Latex Concentrate is obtained by centrifugation and preserved with a high amount of ammonia. It contains 60% Dry Rubber Content (DRC). It is the most common grade of latex used worldwide. It gives excellent films of high clarity and has good adhesion characteristics as a binding agent when suitably compounded. After compounding, it has a wide application especially in dipped products, such as medical and industrial gloves, rubber threads, balloons, prophylactics (condoms), tubing, finger cots, etc. It is also used as an adhesive for casting onto a backing substrate, such as for wood laminate and carpet, and for binding different types of materials.

Packing
1 Metal Drum (non-returnable; internal-lined) = 205 kg
1 Container, 20-ft FCL (80 Metal Drums) = 16.4 MT
1 Flexi Bag per container, 20-ft FCL = 20 MT
1 ISO tank (returnable) per container, 20-ft FCL = 20 MT

Thai Origin High Ammonia Natural Rubber Latex

High Ammonia Natural Rubber Latex, derived from the sap of the rubber tree, is infused with a high concentration of ammonia to enhance its stability and extend its usability. This type of latex is particularly noted for its robust film-forming capabilities, which are essential in creating products that demand high strength and durability. The ammonia serves not only as a stabilizer but also significantly improves the latex’s resistance to microbial degradation and increases its shelf life.

Benefits & Features of High Ammonia Natural Rubber Latex:

Superior Stability: High ammonia content prevents coagulation and degradation, maintaining the latex’s fluidity and effectiveness over extended periods.
Strong Film Formation: Capable of forming thick, resilient films that are crucial for protective applications.
Enhanced Bonding Properties: Excellent adhesive qualities make it suitable for industrial bonding applications where durability is key.

Applications of High Ammonia Natural Rubber Latex:

Medical Gloves: The strong, impermeable films formed by high ammonia latex are ideal for manufacturing medical gloves, offering exceptional protection against pathogens and ensuring the safety of healthcare professionals and patients.
Healthcare Products: Beyond gloves, this latex is used in various other healthcare products requiring barrier protection.
High-Quality Adhesives: Its superior bonding properties are leveraged in the production of adhesives that require strong, durable adhesion for various industrial applications.

High Ammonia Natural Rubber Latex is a critical material in industries where product durability and safety is crucial. Its ability to form protective barriers makes it a preferred choice for healthcare and industrial applications, ensuring both safety and reliability.
