What is Latex 60% DRC
Latex 60% DRC is a type of natural latex with a high solid content, having a minimum Dry Rubber Content (DRC) of 60%. This type of latex is often used in the production of high-end products due to its stability and high quality. According to Wikipedia, Natural Rubber is extracted from the Hevea brasiliensis tree, which is the primary source for commercial latex. The use of 60% DRC latex enhances production efficiency and ensures the quality of the final product. Additionally, latex can be supplemented with ammonia to increase stability and extend shelf life.
Types of Natural Rubber Latex and Their Applications
-
Latex HA (High Ammonia): Contains a high ammonia content (≥ 0.6%), preventing bacteria and mold, ensuring stability during storage and transportation. Widely used in the production of medical gloves, adhesives, and high-tech rubber products.
-
Latex MA (Medium Ammonia): Has a medium ammonia content (0.3%–0.6%), balancing stability with a milder odor. Commonly used in household gloves, rubber mattresses, paints, and ceramics.
-
Latex LA (Low Ammonia): Contains low ammonia (≤ 0.3%), reducing odor and irritation but requiring preservatives to prevent bacteria. Used in medical gloves, balloons, condoms, adhesives, and foam pads
