Polyisporene Rubber (IR) is manufactured by the polymerization of synthetic isoprene and has the same basic chemical formula as natural rubber (NR). It can be seen as the synthetic version of natural rubber (NR). Besides staining and non-staining polyisoprene (SKI-3 and SKI-3S), we also supply FDA-approved polyisoprene rubber (SKI-5PM).
