In recent decades, tires and plastics have become an essential part of micro and macro human consumption.
To the extent that the global annual production capacity reaches 1.5 million tons. The first rubber polymer was created in 1910 by Russian scientists. Today, the wide range of rubber products invented and produced in the world has had a great impact on the development of industries that consume these products. The variety of different categories and combinations of crude oil derivatives, which are known as synthetic or synthetic rubbers, has helped a lot in better and more efficient production of different products. In addition, recycling and other uses of used tires is an excellent feature in order to reduce production costs. For example, the amount of tires recycled during the year reaches 250 million, which is a significant figure.
Consumer Industries of Rubber Products
Petrochemical industries in the world have produced various polymers for consumers of rubber products. In terms of the elements used in them, these products are used in applications such as the production of medical equipment, the production of machine parts and large and small structures. Aerospace industry, automotive industry, aviation, printing, agriculture are industries that are directly dependent on rubber products.
High rubber pieces
Having elasticity, high flexibility and resistance to changes in temperature and humidity are important features of rubber parts. In the following, we will examine a number of commonly used rubber parts together.
Rubber bumper
Another name for these rubber products is shock absorbers or dampers, which are widely used in the construction of industrial equipment and structures. By receiving the energy from the tension and neutralizing these impulses with its elastic tissue, the rubber shock absorber reduces unnecessary vibration and vibrations in the device, increasing its lifespan and efficiency. These rubber parts are widely used in construction structures, industrial machinery and medical care. One of the applications of rubber bumpers is edge protection in vehicle parts. Among the physical properties of these parts, we can mention low weight, resistance to seasonal temperature changes, deformation with minimal force, high tensile strength against heavy blows, ability to repel movements simultaneously in all directions. The effectiveness of these products is in absorbing sound, reducing heat loss and resistance to regular cycles.
Bumpers and its application
Bumpers are produced in different types and for different uses, of which we will mention a few examples. The screw bumper is a type of this branch that is available in the market in two forms, one head and two heads. Another type of shock absorbers is neoprene shock absorbers, which are produced from natural and synthetic rubber in various dimensions and square, circular and rectangular shapes. D-shaped, beaded, industrial, and wall bumpers are other types of bumpers, which are often made of natural rubber with NR, synthetic rubber SBR, nitrile NBR, silicone EPDM, chloroprene CR.
Coupling tires
Rubber couplings are products that are widely used in power transmission systems, especially in engines and industrial machines. These parts play an important role in neutralizing device vibrations and repelling sudden shocks. In addition, their use among moving parts reduces vibration and noise, which prevents energy loss and optimizes the device's performance. In the production of some industrial equipment, rubber couplings are used to restrain the force resulting from sudden start and stop.
Diaphrame tires
Diaphragms are another group of rubber parts that are widely used in various industries. The rubber diaphragm is a polymer plate that controls the flow between two spaces. This flow can be in liquids or gases. They are made of polymer materials resistant to temperature and pressure, which are used in accordance with the adjacent material. These rubber plates are produced by mixing reinforcing fabrics with natural and synthetic rubbers. The reinforcing fabrics of these products are made of polyester, nylon or silk, which give the product the ability to withstand high pressure. The important point in understanding the use of diaphragms is that this part is required to open or close upon receiving vibration at different frequencies.
Rubber gasket
Among other widely used rubber products are gaskets that can be mentioned. A rubber washer is a small ring or disc made of compressed plastic, which in some cases is reinforced with metal to create load tolerance and more resistance, and has many uses in various industries and businesses. Among its applications, we can mention the insulation or sealing in the joints of liquid transmission pipes or devices that deal with liquids in any part of it. This piece also has the role of protecting both sides of the connection from wear and corrosion in other packages and connections with pressure distribution and flexibility. Another use of rubber washers is due to this feature, flexibility of hitting and preventing vibration and noise in moving parts and joints.
