LaTeX is a typesetting system that is used to create documents that have excellent typography.

A milky, rubbery fluid found in several seed plants. Originally, latex meant the natural rubber dispersion as it came from the tree. Today, it includes synthetic rubbers or other polymers dispersed in water.

Term used to signify water-borne paints.

In its pure state, natural latex is the milky white liquid substance that is tapped from the trunks of mature rubber trees. The natural latex is usually blended with other additives and the mixture is then cured and processed into a solid known as latex foam.

  A flexible foam created from a water dispersion of rubber, either from the rubber tree (natural latex) or a man-made, petroleum-based product (synthetic latex). Most latex used in mattresses today i [..]

A water-based sythesis of synthetic rubber, natural rubber or other polymers. Latex is used to adhere secondary backing to primary backing in the carpet manufacture.

[Bark exudate] -- Opaque, milk like white or yellow, sticky or rubbery exudate .

A milky, product excreted from the latex canals of a variety of Plant species that contain cauotchouc. Latex is composed of 25-35% caoutchouc, 60-75% Water, 2% protein, 2% resin, 1.5% sugar & 1% a [..]

A latex (plural latices, or latexes for the Americans!) is a dispersion of water-insoluble polymer in water. The dispersion is usually of particles (not single molecules) that are around 100 nm (10-4 mm) in size. The particles are keep suspended in the water by thermal convection (which keeps them from settling out) and surfactants (which keep them [..]

the milky sap of a rubber tree that is used to make rubber products, such as rubber stoppers for vaccine vials; some people have serious allergic (anaphylactic) reactions when exposed to even small amounts of latex

A thin type of rubber. Dental dams

Emulsion based adhesive, forming a rubberised bond between two natural fibre materials

A thick, white, fluid secretion of many plant species.

A dispersion in water of a solid polymeric material.

A water emulsion of a synthetic rubber or plastic obtained by polymerisation and used especially in coatings, paints and adhesives. Latices include a binder dispersed in the water and form films by fusion of the plastic particles as the water evaporates. Properties of these films, such as hardness, flexibility, toughness, adhesion, colour retention [..]

Paint that is made from water soluble synthetic resin, it is named for a fluid that comes from rubber latex plants. Source: Ralph Mayer, "A Dictionary of Art Terms and Techniques"

a generic term describing stable dispersions of resin particles in a water system.

A stable dispersion of polymer particles in a solvent that becomes semi-solid when exposed to air. Used in a variety of paints and mediums.
