Miscellaneous applications of latices

  • Chapter
Polymer Latices

Abstract

Vulcanized rubber thread is a highly elastic thread widely used in the clothing industry for the production of elastic braiding and fabrics to be used for parts of clothing which are required to undergo reversible elastic deformation under relatively low stresses. This type of thread finds widespread application in articles of clothing such as hosiery and underwear. It also finds application in certain types of footwear, in shock cords for parachute harnesses, and in the production of elastic cords and webs for other uses. Prior to being woven into an elastic braid or fabric, it is common practice to wrap the thread spirally with a textile thread.
