A latex compound comprising a natural rubber or a synthetic rubber material and an antioxidant comprising a zinc based synergist. The zinc based synergist may be selected from the group consisting of zinc 2-mercaptotoluimidazole and zinc 2-mercaptobenzimidazole, as well as combinations of these materials. The latex compounds may be cured without metal oxide, such as zinc oxide, and/or without zinc based accelerators. The invention further pertains to cured natural rubber or synthetic rubber material comprising the latex compounds, and curing systems and methods for curing the latex compounds without metal oxide and/or zinc based accelerators.
