Malaysia is the fifth largest manufacturer and exporter of natural rubber in the world. Malaysia is also the leader in the production and export of rubber products such as rubber gloves, pneumatic tires, inner tubes, catheters, condoms, footwear, rubber bands and rubber sheets. Rubber production in Malaysia is set to double by 2020, provided the Malaysian government’s ambitious development plans for the industry come to fruition. In 2011 the country produced nearly 1 million tones of rubber, according to statistics from the Malaysian Rubber Board (MRB). Under the Economic Transformation Program (ETP), production is expected to reach 2 million tones per annum by the end of the decade, boosting the sector’s contribution to gross national income (GNI) to RM52.9bn ($17.06bn), up from RM18.5bn ($5.97bn) in 2020. Panorama Global Trade Sdn Bhd is our subsidiary for the distribution and export of Standard Malaysian Rubber blocks. Our company also have SMR20 license from Malaysian government under Panorama Global Trade Sdn Bhd (License number W/01/16896) . Panorama Global Trade have the capability to export SMR20 to our clients throughout the world.
Rubber is obtained from the leachate of more than 400 species of plants, and most of the world's rubber is produced from a Brazilian tree more than 35 meters high called "Hawa brasilincis". And now Malaysia in Southeast Asia has the largest resources of natural rubber in the world. Rubber or synthetic rubber was first produced on an industrial scale during World War II. Since then, significant advances in the synthetic rubber industry have led to the production of quality products in this field.
Since the mid-1960s, the production of synthetic rubber has been much higher than the production of natural rubber. Synthetic rubber has had many applications in various industries such as the aircraft manufacturing industry due to its properties such as better resistance to chemicals, heat and oil than natural rubber.
Natural rubber is present in the sap of the air tree and is produced from the polymerization of hydrocarbons called methyl and isoprene. Because the rubber structure is made up of a double bond, heat dissipates with sulfur , binding them together and absorbing the sulfur atom, resulting in rubber becoming rubber.
synthetic rubber is produced through the process of vulcanization (heating rubber with sulfur), Therefore the rubber produced is called vulcanized rubber. There are other synthetic rubbers made from other compounds.
A synthetic rubber made from a combination of styrene and butadiene. These materials have good resistance to abrasion. About 50% of car tires are made from different types of SBR. The ratio of styrene to butadiene affects the properties of this compound: with high styrene, the rubber will be harder. It is also used in building applications as a sealant and binder behind renderings. Styrene butadiene rubber can also be used to store rooms or wet surfaces, a process in which rubber is placed on the entire surface (sometimes walls, floors and ceilings) to form a continuous, flawless waterproof band
Rubber has been around since time immemorial, with some plant fossils dating back three million years. It is interesting to know that more than 400 types of leachate plants produce different percentages of rubber. Trees such as Hua, Saporilla and Balata, especially the aerial tree Hevea brasiliensis, have the largest share of rubber-based material production in the world. The knowledge of rubber dates back to the time of the discovery of new lands. European explorers encountered a new and wonderful world as they discovered the new American continent. The vegetation, animals, fruits and even the shape and image of the people of this land were very strange. The natives used chewing gum to increase the resistance of dishes to water and shoes.
