The Asia Pacific Rubber Gloves Market would witness market growth of 4.2% CAGR during the forecast period (2022-2028).
Manufacturers include sulfur, zinc oxide, accelerators, colors, stabilizers, a de-webbing agent, and antioxidants among the compounds added to the latex. These compounds enable rubber to maintain a solid surface while being stretched, preventing the formation of holes. They also increase the rubber's resistance to the sun's UV rays. After maturing for 24 to 36 hours, the latex is ready for dipping.
Moreover, latex is typically tinted with specific colors before it hardens. Latex-dipped items, such as medical gloves and condoms, are particularly efficient against germs, such as bacteria and viruses, and are also impermeable to infectious fluids. However, latex made from natural rubber is a frequent allergy. Nitrile and vinyl gloves do not contain the proteins present in natural latex, therefore those with a latex allergy can use them without issue.
Nitrile gloves are created from synthetic rubber and provide a good barrier against viruses, chemicals, and caustic substances. They do not have the potential to cause allergic reactions, unlike latex. Nitrile is a co-polymer composed of butadiene and acrylonitrile. The nitrile used in disposable gloves is resistant to most petroleum-based lubricants and hydrocarbon fuels because it contains more acrylic than butadiene. Through the ammoxidation process, large quantities of acrylonitrile, an important synthetic chemical derived from propylene, are created. This method is utilized to produce textiles, resins, and polymers.
The top six natural rubber-producing countries in the world are Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, India, Vietnam, and China. Together, these countries account for around 86% of the world's natural rubber output. As a direct result of this, the majority of the world's most successful natural rubber manufacturers may be found in Southeast Asia. At the moment, the bulk of natural rubber is obtained from the Hevea brasiliensis tree, also known as the para rubber tree. Incisions are created into the bark of the tree to harvest isoprene polymers, which are a natural product.
