Natural rubber derived from the latex of Hevea brasiliensis (commonly known as the Pará rubber tree or rubber tree) is the world's most commercially significant elastomeric biopolymer, accounting for approximately 40–45% of total global rubber consumption. It is sourced by tapping the bark of the tree to collect the milky-white latex sap, which is a colloidal aqueous suspension containing roughly 30–40% dry rubber content, along with proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, and inorganic salts.
