The Types, Qualities, and Benefits of Foam Rubber Products

Edit:http://chinaixpe.com/en   Browse:   Date:2015-11-27

Foam rubbers are durable materials made of varying blends of polymers and elastomers that produce some of the most versatile and unique materials in the world of foam. Neoprene sheets and gymnastic rubber are two of the most useful and can easily be customized to fit any application for which their attributes provide the best solution.

A medium-weight, resistant material, neoprene is a foam rubber available in multiple variations. The three major types include chloroprene rubber (CR), styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) and ethylene-propylene-diene-monomer (EPDM). These varying blends create slight variations in the material, with each having their own set of performance characteristics and best applications.

The simplest and “purest” form because of its lack of blending is the CR foam rubber, the oldest of the three. This material is durable, but not to the degree of some of the blended forms which have undergone formulaic additions to enhance performance attributes. Still, this material performs well as seals, bearings and in gasket applications because of its resistance to water and many oils and fluids. SBR is a blending of the monomers styrene and butadiene, developed during World War II to compete with natural rubber and compensate for its supply shortage. The advantages over natural rubber include better water, organism, and abrasion resistance, as well as better flex and tear resistance and tensile strength.

Foam rubbers provide a range of services that go from money-saving and practical like insulation, to recreational and interactive like exercise mats. The variances in formula allow many different products to share core traits while tailoring them to special jobs at the same time. The benefits of foam rubbers can be applied to all of their applications, with their specialization making each one stand out as an individually useful material.
