To create foam latex, a liquid latex base is mixed with various additives and whipped into a foam, then poured or injected into a mold and baked in an oven to cure.The main components of foam latex are the latex base, a foaming agent (to help it whip into a froth), a gelling agent (to convert the liquid foam into a gel), and a curing agent (to turn the gelled foam latex into a solid when baked).
There are several types and grades of rubber crepe, mainly distinguished by the grade and pre-processing of the latex used in their manufacture. [2] Pale latex crepe (PLC) is a premium grade, made from raw field latex. Estate brown crepe (EBC) is made from "cup lump" (raw, naturally coagulated rubber from the collection cup) and other coagula.
