SBR Latex stands for Styrene Butadiene Rubber latex. It is a synthetic rubber emulsion made from the polymerization of styrene and butadiene. SBR latex is widely used in various industries because of its good mechanical properties, chemical resistance, and affordability.
Key Features of SBR Latex
It is a milky white liquid with good film-forming properties.
It has good abrasion resistance and aging stability.
It is water-based and can be easily mixed with cement and other materials.
It is resistant to alkalis and provides flexibility to products.
It is not highly resistant to oil or strong chemicals.
Main Uses of SBR Latex
Used as a binder in carpet backing and paper coating.
Commonly added to cement and mortar to improve flexibility, bonding, and water resistance.
Used in adhesives, especially pressure-sensitive adhesives.
Used in the production of coatings and sealants.
