Potassium alum applications as an antibacterial agent in safety rubber goods are examined in this study. The goal is to improve rubber products‘ hygienic qualities and longevity, especially in areas where microbiological contamination is an issue. The tests were conducted on the final rubber vulcanizates to assess its mechanical qualities (modulus, elongation at break, and tensile strength), rheological characteristics, and antibacterial effectiveness against common bacteria and fungi.

One significant strategic business that is regarded as a source of national income is the manufacturing of rubber. The common rubber needs to be vulcanized to create a dimensionally stable rubber product for varies applications. The vulcanized rubber product that can be handled structurally without breaking apart into tiny pieces is said to as „dimensionally stable“.
