All you wanted to know about balloons and balloon fillers

The sound of a popping balloon startles most of us. Balloons were invented in 1824…long ago isn’t it? Since then they have evolved dramatically. The sound that is caused when a balloon bursts is due to the quick release of the air which creates a small sonic boom. When the air is released from the balloon, it is basically the release of energy that makes the hole grow at the speed of sound in latex. This speed is much higher than the speed of sound in air. As the hole breaks the sound barrier, it creates a sonic boom.

Latex balloons are not made from plastic, but 100% latex. When made from natural latex, these balloons are biodegradable. Latex is collected from the sap of rubber trees. These trees, predominantly grow in the rain forests. A tree can produce latex for up to 40 years. 

Natural latex is a mixture of rubber globules suspended in milky water. When this is exposed to air, heat or certain chemicals, it coagulates. The globules get separated from the watery portion which is called latex. This has elastic properties.

Latex balloons are used for decorations for different occasion. With the use of technology and the creativity of the designers, the single color balloons evolved into different color balloons with designs and pattern printed on it.
