Overview
General
Product Name: SKIM
Description: SKIM Rubber is a material that results from the production of latex concentrate by centrifugation. After the centrifugation process, some 5-10% of the total rubber, together with an enhanced proportion of the non-rubber constituents of the original latex, remains in the serum phase to form “skim latex.” Neutralizing and coagulating this latex by appropriate methods then gives “skim rubber.”
