To improve upon the physical properties of natural rubber a process of vulcanization is carried out. This process consist of heating a mixture of raw rubber with sulphur  and an appropriate additive at a temperature range between 373K to 415K. On vulcanization, sulphur form cross links at the reactive sites of double bonds and thus the  rubber get stiffened.
