Inflatable rafts are generally constructed of either Hypalon rubber, or Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC). Both of these materials are considered "Bomb Proof" and are used in commercial rafting operations. PVC tends to deteriorate quicker under high UV exposure at altitudes.
PVC employs the use of seams where as Hypalon rubber is a seamless weld. Hypalon is more expensive, but is made to last a life time unlike PVC.
There have never been life rafts used on the moon.

Whitewater Rafting,as we know it today stems from the adventurous few who explored the Grand Canyon of the Colorado River. The first inflatable rafts appeared on the scene in the form of old World War II bridge pontoons.
They're usually made of rubber or PVC - so they can flex without breaking, and so that they can ride over rough rocks without being punctured..

Yes, it does. People have made rafts from it.
The first people to travel on crude rafts were likely prehistoric humans who utilized simple, buoyant materials such as logs and reeds to navigate rivers and lakes. Evidence suggests that early civilizations, including those in Mesopotamia and ancient Egypt, also employed rafts for transportation and trade. These early rafts played a crucial role in the development of trade routes and the movement of people across waterways.
