Diene Polymers: Diene polymers are a class of polymers that contain two carbon-carbon double bonds (dienes) in their repeating units, which allows for crosslinking and the formation of elastomeric materials.
Natural Rubber: Natural rubber is a naturally occurring polymer derived from the sap of certain trees, primarily the Hevea brasiliensis tree, and is an important diene polymer with unique properties.
Synthetic Rubbers: Synthetic rubbers are man-made polymers that are designed to mimic the properties of natural rubber, often with improved or tailored characteristics, and are classified as diene polymers.
