Well...! rubber is made from a runny, milky white liquid called latex that seeps out from certain plants when you cut into them. And there are two types of rubber man made rubber (synthetic rubber) and natural rubber. Latex has a molecular weight of 100,000 to 1,000,000 daltons. We can also find a very less % of proteins fatty acids and salts in it.
