Latex based adhesives are of special importance for cementing porous surfaces due to their ability to wet such surfaces. On the other angle the porosity allows the latex adhesive to dry out thus producing a strong coherent film. Sodium silicate, glue, albumen gums and starch etc. are compatible with natural latex and exert a stabilizing action. The latex rubber in the adhesive film imparts flexibility and strength and protects and bond against dynamic fatigue.

 Latex based adhesives contain a rubber latex, adhesion modifiers, plasticizers,curatives, fillers such as whiting and kaolin, thickness e.g. cellulose derivatives and other additives e.g. antioxidants, surfactants antifoams (Octyl alcohol, silicons), antifreeze, stabilizers corrosion inhibitor colourants, deodorants and reodorants etc.

Construction Chemicals, as the name suggests, are the chemical compounds used in construction activities, be it residential, non-residential or non-building. These compounds belong to a niche specialty segment of the chemical industry and can be used either in existing construction projects to speed up the work or in new construction projects to impart durability and strengthen the structures. Construction chemicals increase the cost of the project by 2-5% but the benefits are multi-fold. Certain chemical products help in minimizing the quantities of cement and water used in the construction. These compounds impart chemical as well as physical properties in applications such as cross-linking or phase change (from liquid to solid). Construction chemicals are essential for high quality concrete and for promoting the improvement of concrete performance. They also increase the life of construction work and impart additional protection from environmental hazards. Based on end use applications, these compounds can be broadly classified into five categories.

Urea-formaldehyde resins are the most prominent examples of the class of thermosetting resins usually referred to as amino resins.2,3 Urea-formaldehyde resins comprise about 80% of the amino resins produced worldwide. Melamine-formaldehyde resins constitute the remainder of this class of resins, except for minor amounts of resins that are produced from other aldehydes or amino compounds (especially aniline), or both.

Shoe industry, both or leather and rubber  based types, utilities quite a good amount of adhesives, large number of which are based  on animal glues, now-a-days various  thermoplastic materials other than those based on animal glues are in use, e.g. adhesives  based  on  PVC, polyvinyl butyl,  rubber natural and synthetic, methyl cellulose and celluloid etc. Water resistant casein glues are also employed for this purpose.

The  rubber  solution which are  manufactured  by  synthetic rubber  are  called as "synthetic rubber adhesives".  It  is   an important item for shoes and rubber industries in the joining  of two layers or more than two rubber layers of shoe layers or  shoe parts  and  soles.  The rubber solutions have  some  public  uses also,  such  as,  in cycle puncture and  heavy  vehicle  puncture fixing.

The  use of adhesives is also in the bursting of  tyres  and tubes.  When tyres burst, we require adhesive for joining to  the burst.  The  types and tubes are very necessary item  for  cycle, auto  rikshaw, heavy vehicle etc. The adhesive gives a  new  list for these tyres and tubes when it joint to the puncture or burst.
