Neoprene is made from chloroprene (2-chloro-1,3-butadiene) as the main raw material α- Synthetic rubber produced by polymerization is widely used in anti-weathering products, viscose soles, coatings and rocket fuels.

Neoprene can be used as an insulator in power transformers, bulbs and other electrical applications due to its fireproof and anti-static properties. Neoprene is also used for electrical sealing gaskets to provide waterproof sealing, heat resistance and anti-static, and to prevent the entry of dust and pollutants.
