An improvement in liquid dispensers, especially those used to infuse liquid drugs into patients, that dispense liquid under pressure from an expansible, elastomer bladder is disclosed. The improvement is that the bladder is made from synthetic vulcanized polyisoprene, especially polyisoprene that has 90% to 98% cis linkages and has been vulcanized with an organic peroxide, such as dicumyl peroxide, at a concentration of 5.5x10-3 to 7.5x10-3 moles of peroxide per 100 grams of polyisoprene. |
