Silicone products are gaining popularity due to their environmental friendliness, and there's an increasing trend of using silicone in various items. To understand these products systematically, let's start by exploring the basics of silicone raw materials.Classification by Performance:Color: Transp

I. Definitions of Hardness and Elasticity:Hardness refers to the surface resistance to indentation of an object, usually measured using hardness testers such as Shore A, Shore D, or IRHD. Elasticity is the ability of an object to regain its original shape after deformation, indicating its ability to

Natural Rubber (NR):Appearance: Pale yellow and semi-transparent.Burning Characteristics: Burns easily.Flame Characteristics: Produces black smoke, a dark yellow flame, and becomes soft.Residue Odor: Smells like rubber with non-sticky residue.Isoprene Rubber (IR):Appearance: Pale yellow and semi-tra

Rubber damping products are generally referred to as rubber dampers. There are many types of rubber dampers, and they can be categorized based on the type of vibration force they endure, such as compression, shear, torsion, impact, and hybrid types. With the advancement of technology, the types of r

Classification and Structure of Rubber MoldsWith the development of China's rubber product industry, the variety and production volume of rubber products have been increasing, driving the shift from traditional empirical design to theoretical calculation design for rubber mold design and manufacturi

The difference between recycled rubber and recycled plasticRegenerated rubber and recycled plastics are the two most commonly used renewable resources in the product industry at present. Among them, recycled rubber is processed from waste rubber products and rubber product corner waste as raw materi

Methods for Determining Plasticity:Compression Method:This method includes the Williams method, the Wallace Rapid Plasticity method, and the De Mattia Plasticity method. These methods measure the plasticity of raw rubber and compounded rubber and are conducted at a constant temperature since plastic

Curing Mechanism: Curing is the process of transforming the rubber compound from a soft, uncured state to a solid, durable material with desired properties. In the case of foam rubber tubes, the curing mechanism typically involves the use of chemical agents called curing agents or vulcanizing agents

Compression Molding: This method is commonly used to manufacture rubber products with complex shapes, such as gaskets and seals. The rubber material is placed in heated molds and compressed using both the upper and lower molds.Injection Molding: Injection molding is used for more complex rubber prod

EPDM rubber has a low density, allowing for significant filler and rubber oil content without major changes in physical and mechanical properties. However, in practical production, the rubber oil used for filling may contain volatile components, leading to mold deposits. How can this issue be resolv
