Elastomers And Rubber Compounding Materials

Rubber like solids with elastic properties are called elastomers.

Elastomers and rubber compounding materials.

Environmental conditions of chemicals and heat often challenge rubber materials. Let redco answer that question. Materials eutsler has a full material selection including a complete line of fluoroelastomers nitriles chloroprenes epdm natural rubbers and other specialty elastomers. Elastomers and rubber compounding materials paperback december 3 2012 by i.

Natural rubber neoprene rubber buna s and buna n are all examples of such elastomers. Elastomer classes rubber material compounds class and type details. Thermoplastics are polymers that turn to liquid when heated and turn solid when cooled. The ethylene imparts good low temperature properties while the acrylic portion improves the oil resistance.

Volume 1 pages 1 607 1989. Polymer chains are held together in these materials by relatively weak intermolecular bonds which permit the polymers to stretch in response to macroscopic stresses. They can be repeatedly remelted and remolded allowing parts and scraps to be reprocessed. See all formats and editions hide other formats and editions.

Elastomers and rubber compounding materials reviews the properties of elastomers and particular groups of ingredients and chemicals mixed into the basic elastomer to form a rubber compound. When it comes to rubber there are dozens of materials to choose from. At redco we make a large variety of rubber products and process all types of thermo set elastomers. Nitrile nbr nitrile is the most widely used elastomer in the seal industry.

Franta editor 5 0 out of 5 stars 1 rating. The popularity of nitrile is due to its excellent resistance to petroleum products and its ability to be compounded for service over a temperature range of 22 f to 212 f. Elastomers and rubber compounding materials manufacture properties and applications. There are several different material grades of elastomer and rubber materials which include thermoplastics thermosets and composites.

Aem rubbers ethylene acrylic elastomers are synthetic rubbers composed of both ethylene and acrylic monomers.
