Rubber is a highly elastic polymer material with reversible deformation.

1. Characteristics

• High elasticity, can produce large deformation and can restore to its original shape.

• Viscoelasticity, dependent on temperature and time.

• Good air tightness, can prevent gas penetration.

• Good electrical insulation.

2. Classification

• By source: natural rubber is made from latex; synthetic rubber is synthesized by chemical methods and has a wide variety.

• By performance and use: general rubber has good performance and is widely used; special rubber has special properties.

3. Processing technology

Including plasticizing, mixing, vulcanization and other steps to make the performance of rubber products meet the requirements.

4. Application fields

Widely used in transportation (tires, shock absorbers, etc.), industrial production (conveyor belts, seals, etc.), construction industry (waterstops, bearings, etc.), sports goods, wires and cables, medical and health fields.
