Latex scrap a proper system for preservation and concentration was developed. Now different technologies are adopted for producing stable latex concentrates with suitable latex preservatives. Different types of latex concentrates with a dry rubber content of up to 60 % are produced either by centrifuging or creaming

Fresh Latex collected from rubber plantation contains only 30 to 40 % dry rubber content, balance being mainly water. Fresh latex, because of the high water content and presence of non rubber solids, it is susceptible to bacterial attack and hence a perishable material. It can not be used directly for manufacturing any rubber products. Therefore a proper system for preservation and concentration was developed. Now different technologies are adopted for producing stable latex concentrates with suitable latex preservatives. Different types of latex concentrates with a dry rubber content of up to 60 % are produced either by centrifuging or creaming

Granulated rubber in the selection of usage of rubber. To meet this challenge, different special forms of natural rubber have been evolved to make it suitable for certain specific applications.

Natural rubber scrap of a certain minimum quality. The International Standards Organization (ISO) developed the first draft standards in 1964 in its meeting held in India for the grading and marketing of Block Rubber or Technically Specified Rubber (TSR).The TSRs are mostly the block type made, adopting new methods of processing

Crumb rubber this challenge, different special forms of natural rubber have been evolved to make it suitable for certain specific applications. Some of them are Oil Extended Natural Rubber.

The serum separated during centrifuging of latex contains 3 to 8 % of dry rubber. This is the skim rubber. It is a low quality product which contains many of the non rubbers.

Crepe rubber with the end users. Hence efforts were made to grade natural rubber based on certain technical properties which could provide guarantees to the consumers of a certain minimum quality. The International Standards Organization (ISO) developed the first draft standards in 1964 in its meeting held in India for the grading and marketing of Block Rubber or Technically Specified Rubber (TSR).

Tyre crumb are ideal for thread rubber production, form production etc. It has relatively high viscosity and low ZST. Creamed concentrates are available in HA or LA types.

Scrap rubber of natural rubber have been evolved to make it suitable for certain specific applications. Some of them are Oil Extended Natural Rubber (OENR), Thermoplastic Natural Rubber (TPNR), De Proteinised Natural Rubber (DPNR), Superior Processing Rubbers, Graft Co-polymer Rubbers etc.
