synthetic rubbers
Lab-made stretch materials
Synthetic rubbers are man-made elastic polymers designed to mimic or improve upon natural rubber's properties.
Produced from petroleum-derived chemicals, they include varieties like neoprene, silicone, and styrene-butadiene rubber, each engineered for specific applications—tires, seals, hoses, or industrial belts.
Synthetic rubbers often outperform natural rubber in heat resistance, durability, or chemical stability.
