To date, there are no published reports on the application of peroxide
prevulcanised latex for NR latex foam products. The main drawback is that the
low wet-gel strength of peroxide prevulcanised latex contributes to foam collapse
upon deformation and fracture upon tearing. Thus, the present study will
demonstrate a practical application of the peroxide curing system for NR latex to
make latex foam. Without altering the normal production process of NR latex
foam, this method offers an alternative curing system for the NR latex foam industry
