Natural Rubber Sheets

Natural rubber sheet has excellent mechanical properties. The properties of natural rubber include very good abrasion and tear resistance and excellent elongation, tensile and tear strength. In these areas, natural rubber sheet is still generally considered to be superior to synthetic rubbers.However, the weakness of natural rubber sheet lies in its weathering properties. This is because natural rubber sheet does not fare well with ozone and sunlight ageing and does not respond well to high temperatures; therefore natural rubber sheet would not be considered the ideal choice for outdoor applications.
