How do you chlorinate latex?

Chlorinating latex involves treating the latex material with chlorine gas or a chlorine-containing compound, typically in a controlled environment. This process can enhance the material's properties, such as improving its resistance to degradation and altering its surface characteristics. The chlorination can be done through gas-phase chlorination or by aqueous methods, ensuring proper safety measures and monitoring to control the reaction. After treatment, the latex is usually rinsed and dried to remove excess chlorine.
