What purpose of ammonium sulfate at latex Ammonium sulfate added in latex will make latex dry faster than ammonium free latex?

Ammonium sulphate is an inorganic salt. When we add to latex, it will dissociate to ammonium ions. By itself, ammonium ion will increase ionic strength in latex. It makes latex destabilise easily. However, if there are zinc oxide and ammonia in the system, then there will be another action of zinc ammine complexes happen. This action will destabilize latex more easily. In this destabilised action, the latex will gel or "dry" faster. This is the normal system for making latex products like mask or latex carpet underlay.See the Web Links to the left for more information.From PatentStorm.us:Since the severe allergic reactions to latex are due to their naturally occurring proteins, the prior art offers little in the way of solutions. For example, "hypoallergenic" latex products are free from the vulcanization accelerator compounds that can cause dermatitis, but do not prevent immediate hypersensitivity reactions. Likewise, ammonia treatment of the natural rubber latex proteins can cause breakdown and precipitation of some latex proteins, but the allergenicity appears to be preserved and other antigenic latex proteins are unextractable. In short, the literature recommends that the only treatment available for latex allergy is avoidance.
