SBR is widely used in chewing gum base and bubble gum base applications. It is most suitable
for gum with a firmer chew, as well as for bubble gum where large bubble size and stability are
highly desirable. It is also used in other food contact applications, such as food can sealant.

SSBR-CH 1027 is a food grade SSBR. Which is produced by hexane solution, the solution
copolymerization of butadiene and styrene. Using butyllithium as catalyst, the solvents and
volatiles are removed by hot water, dewaterer and expander
.
It is an equivalent of SBR FOOD-CH 1027. Which used in bubble/chewing gum base and
food contact.

Gum Base is a non-nutritive masticatory substance (US FDA, “Code of Federal Regulation”).
It is an inert and insoluble non-nutritive product used as a support for the edible and soluble
portion of the chewing gum (sugar, glucose, polyols and flavours). The general description
“Gum Base”, used on chewing gum products throughout the world, is recognised by The
Food Chemicals Codex and most national legislation.
