A latex composition for dip-molding obtained by mixing a latex of conjugated diene polymer (A) having a glass transition temperature of 10 C. or less and a latex of polymer (B) having a glass transition temperature above 10 C. A latex composition for dip-molding capable of providing a dip-molded article excellent in wear resistance, as well as wet grip when water and oil are deposited thereon can be provided.

A polymer latex is described for the preparation of an elastomeric film obtained by free-radical emulsion polymerization of a mixture of ethylenically unsaturated monomers comprising: a) 15 to 99 wt.-% of conjugated dienes; b) 0 to 80 wt.-% of ethylenically unsaturated nitrile compounds; c) 0 to 70 wt.-% of vinyl aromatic monomers; the sum of ethylenically unsaturated nitrile compounds b) and vinyl aromatic monomers c) being 0.95 to 84.95 wt.-% d) 0.05 to 10 wt.-% of ethylenically unsaturated acids wherein the ethylenically unsaturated acids comprise d1) an ethylenically unsaturated acid comprising an acid functional group; and a spacer group separating the ethylenically unsaturated group and the acid functional group by at least 4 atoms; and e) 0 to 65 wt.-% of co-polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated compounds,
wherein monomers a) to e) are as defined.
