Materials Of Elastic Bands

The main component of elastic bands is rubber, which can be divided into two main categories: natural rubber and synthetic rubber.

Natural rubber: Derived from the latex of rubber trees, it possesses high strength, high elasticity, good abrasion resistance, and oil resistance. It is an important raw material for making elastic bands, especially in applications requiring high strength and high elasticity.

Synthetic rubber: Man-made polymer elastomers whose properties can be adjusted according to specific needs. There are many types of synthetic rubber, including styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) and nitrile rubber (NBR), which are widely used in the manufacture of various elastic bands, particularly in applications requiring special properties (such as high temperature resistance, oil resistance, and acid and alkali resistance).
