Provided is a dip molding composition including, at least: an elastomer that contains a (meth)acrylonitrile-derived structural unit, an unsaturated carboxylic acid-derived structural unit, and a butadiene-derived structural unit in a polymer main chain; an epoxy crosslinking agent; water; and a pH modifier, in which dip molding composition the elastomer contains the (meth)acrylonitrile-derived structural unit in an amount of 20 to 40% by weight, the unsaturated carboxylic acid-derived structural unit in an amount of 1 to 10% by weight, and the butadiene-derived structural unit in an amount of 50 to 75% by weight, and the epoxy crosslinking agent includes an epoxy crosslinking agent containing an epoxy compound having three or more epoxy groups in one molecule and has a dissolution rate in water of 10 to 70% as determined by a specific measurement method.

The disclosed latex system comprises a one-component, closed-cell, semi-foam, mastic sealant using gas-filled, flexible, organic microspheres to create a product that is elastic and compressible under pressure without protruding in an outward direction when compressed, thereby allowing the applied sealant to compress in an enclosed, maximum-filled channel unlike typical mastic sealants (while retaining the ability to rebound). This allows the sealant to function as a gasket, and, once fully cured, to have properties including vibration damping, insulating, and condensation resistance. The sealant can be formulated as an air barrier or a vapor barrier and at various degrees of moisture resistance. It may be applied by different packaging variations including aerosol can (bag in can or bag on valve), airless sprayer, cartridge tubes, foil tubes, squeeze tubes, and buckets to be applied using a brush, trowel, spatula, etc. The disclosed mastic sealant can also be formulated to be smoke-resistant and flame-resistant.

A carboxylic acid-modified nitrile-based copolymer latex includes a carboxylic acid-modified nitrile-based copolymer including: 65.5 wt % to 82.5 wt % of a conjugated diene-based monomer-derived unit, 15 wt % to 30 wt % of an ethylenic unsaturated nitrile-based monomer-derived unit, and 2.5 wt % to 4.5 wt % of an ethylenic unsaturated acid monomer-derived unit, wherein the carboxylic acid-modified nitrile-based copolymer latex satisfies General Formula 1:

1.0 mm.sup.2/s≤CV.sub.0≤3.0 mm.sup.2/s  [General Formula 1]

wherein CV.sub.0 represents a capillary viscosity of the carboxylic acid-modified nitrile-based copolymer latex which is measured in a swollen state in a methyl ethyl ketone solvent.

The present invention relates to a latex composition for dip molding, and such latex composition includes: a carboxylic acid-modified nitrile-based copolymer latex; and a reactive compound having three or more branched chains and a reactive group at a terminal of each of the branched chains, wherein the reactive group is one or more selected from the group consisting of an amine group, a hydroxy group, an epoxy group, a glycidyl group, and an isocyanate group.

Methods of making a crosslinked fluorescent latex are provided. In an embodiment, such a method comprises adding a water-soluble initiator to an uncrosslinked fluorescent latex comprising water and uncrosslinked resin particles comprising an unsaturated resin and a fluorescent agent incorporated therein; and exposing the water-soluble initiator to conditions to activate the water-soluble initiator and induce crosslinking reactions between the activated water-soluble initiator and the unsaturated resin, thereby forming a crosslinked fluorescent latex comprising crosslinked fluorescent resin particles comprising crosslinked resin and the fluorescent agent incorporated therein. Crosslinked fluorescent latexes are also provided, as are fluorescent toners made from the same.

A latex composition for dip forming, and more particularly, to a latex composition for dip forming includes carboxylic acid-modified nitrile-based copolymer latex; and a phenolic emulsifier, wherein the phenolic emulsifier is included in an amount of 0.08 parts by weight to 6 parts by weight (based on a solid content) based on 100 parts by weight of the carboxylic acid-modified nitrile-based copolymer latex. A method for preparing the latex composition and a formed article produced using the latex composition are also provided.

A latex composition is formed by adding an aqueous solution of an aluminum compound to a latex of a carboxyl group-containing synthetic polyisoprene and/or a carboxyl group-containing styrene-isoprene-styrene block copolymer. In the latex composition, the aqueous solution of an aluminum compound preferably has a pH of 5 to 13. In the latex composition, the aqueous solution of an aluminum compound is preferably an aqueous solution of a metal salt of aluminate.
