thus , the present invention relates also to a process for making a latex foam by a ) compounding the polymer latex of the present invention into a foamable and vulcanizable latex compound ; c ) filling the foam obtained in step b ) into a mold of desired shape ; in order to compound the rubber dispersion of the present invention into a foamable and vulcanizable latex compound the dispersion is preferably mixed with emulsifiers , thickening agents and a vulcanizing paste as known by a person skilled in the art . emulsifiers are added to the rubber dispersion of the present invention in order to increase its mechanical and chemical stability and to facilitate foaming of the rubber dispersion . anionic , cationic or non - ionic surfactants can be chosen depending on the process requirements whereby anionic surfactants are preferred for foaming applications . preferred anionic surfactants are fatty acid soaps , fatty alcohol sulfonates and alkylaryl or aralkyl sulfonates , succinates and amido sulfosuccinates . particularly preferred are alkali metal and ammonium salts of fatty acids and rosin acids and combinations thereof , most preferred are alkali metal salts of fatty acids and rosin acids and combinations thereof . the vulcanization paste , preferably employed in the foaming process of the present invention , comprises sulfur or sulfur compounds , zinc oxide , vulcanization accelerators and customary additives , like antiaging agents or surfactants . examples of suitable sulfur compounds are described in d . c . blackley , high polymer latices , vol . 1 1966 , pages 69 72 . suitable vulcanization accelerators are described in d . c . blackley , high polymer latices , vol . 1 1966 , pages 73 - 86 , and in encyclopedia of polymer science and engineering , vol . 14 , john wiley & amp ; sons , pages 719 - 746 ( 1985 ). suitable antiaging agents are described in d . c . blackley , high polymer latices , vol . 1 1966 , pages 86 - 89 . the vulcanization pastes are suitably applied in amounts of 3 - 15 weight percent , preferably 4 - 12 weight percent , and most preferred 4 - 10 weight percent , based on the weight of the solids of the rubber dispersion . the thus obtained foamable and vulcanizable latex compound can be processed by any process known to the person skilled in the art for making foamed articles . preferably , the foamable and vulcanizable latex compound is processed by the dunlop process or the talalay process , whereby the dunlop process is most preferred . in case the foamed article is prepared according to the dunlop process an appropriate amount of gelling agent is added to the readily mixed vulcanizable latex compound . the quantity of the gelling agent will depend on the desired pot life of the foamable compound which should be advantageously adjusted to be 5 - 20 minutes . preferably according to the dunlop process an aqueous sodium silicofluoride dispersion is used as gelling agent . the compound can be first foamed and then the gelling agent is added and foaming is continued to obtain a homogeneous distribution of the gelling agent within the foam , the desired foam density , as well as the desired foam structure . alternatively , after the addition of the gelling agent the compound is foamed immediately using mechanical means in a way to prepare a stable foam of the desired foam density . thereafter the foamed latex compound is filled into the mold of desired shape . usually closed molds are used but in some cases , for example shoe soles , open molds can be employed . according to the dunlop process the foam structure in the mold is stabilized by gelling the latex foam at elevated temperatures . thereafter the molds are heated , in case of closed molds preferably in saturated steam , to vulcanize the latex foam . after vulcanization the latex article is removed from the mold and if necessary washed and dried . alternatively the talalay process may be employed to prepare the latex foams according to the present invention . in the talalay process the vulcanizable latex compound is first prefoamed to give a foam with relatively high density and then poured into the molds . the closed molds are then evacuated whereby the latex compound foams to the finally desired density due to the vacuum applied and thus fills the mold completely . by cooling the mold to approximately − 30 ° c . the foam structure is stabilized . thereafter carbon dioxide is lead into the mold to pressurize the mold whereby at the same time the ph of the frozen foamed latex compound is lowered resulting in gelling . the foam then may be thawed without changing its structure and the mold is heated in stages up to 110 ° c . to vulcanize the latex foam . after complete vulcanization the article is removed from the mold , optionally washed and dried . the foamed articles of the present invention may be used for mattresses , pillows , neck rests , toppers , shock absorbers , shaped parts of shoes , shoe inside soles , garments padding , protectors for sportswear , athletic implements , bike saddles , motorbike saddles , furniture upholstery material , bumpers , automotive dashboards and carpets . a further object of the present invention is a method for making a latex sealing by : b ) applying the latex compound to a metal substrate ( like for example can ends ), and the can sealing compound should have no impact on the odor and flavor properties of the contents ( food and drinks ) of the can and serves to protect the contents from gases ( oxygen ) and bacterial intrusion from outside as well as gas loss ( carbon dioxide ) from inside . the compound has to be mechanically stable during the compounding and processing and has to exhibit good adhesion properties on metal during the can closing and life cycle of the can . one example of a can sealing compound is given below : the ingredients are added to the compound in the mentioned sequence a -
