Thai Origin Low Ammonia Natural Rubber Latex
Low Ammonia Natural Rubber Latex, derived from the sap of the rubber tree, is processed with a lower concentration of ammonia. This modification results in a latex that is more fluid and less viscous, maintaining more of the rubber's natural properties. The reduced ammonia content also minimizes odor and environmental impact while enhancing the latex's elasticity and resilience.
Benefits & Features of Low Ammonia Natural Rubber Latex:
- Enhanced Fluidity: Less viscous for ease of processing, suitable for delicate applications.
- Superior Elasticity: Offers excellent elasticity, crucial for products requiring flexibility and stretch.
- Increased Comfort: The natural softness of this latex makes it ideal for products that prioritize user comfort.
Applications of Low Ammonia Natural Rubber Latex:
- Latex Foam Products: Used extensively in the manufacturing of latex foams for mattresses and pillows, providing optimal comfort and support.
- Latex Threads: Vital for the production of latex threads in the textile industry, enhancing fabric quality with superior stretch and resilience.
- Protective Clothing: Employed in crafting components of protective clothing where flexibility and user comfort are essential.
Packaging & Transport Options
Low Ammonia Natural Rubber Latex is available in various packaging configurations to meet different logistical requirements and budget considerations:
New Steel Drums
- Capacity: 205 kg per drum
- Container Load: 98 drums (20.09 MT) per 20ft container, 80 drums (16.40 MT) per 20ft container
- Cost Consideration: Highest cost option
- Best For: Smaller volume orders and facilities without specialized storage tanks
Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBC)
- Capacity: 1 MT per IBC
- Container Load: 18 MT per 20ft container
- Cost Consideration: Medium cost option, more economical than drums
- Best For: Medium-volume orders and receivers with forklift capabilities
Flexibags
- Capacity: 20.8-21 MT per flexibag
- Container Load: 20.8-21 MT per 20ft container (single flexibag)
- Cost Consideration: Most economical option
- Requirements: Receiver must have facilities to discharge latex into storage tanks
- Best For: Large volume orders and receivers with appropriate storage infrastructure
The choice of packaging depends on your volume requirements, handling capabilities, and cost considerations. Our team can assist in determining the most suitable option for your specific needs.
