■ Note
- The higher the density, the more rubber material used. For example: although the unit price of neoprene is the same with natural rubber, but it's actually still very expensive.
- Sometimes the tensile strength is not important, but unchanged tensile strength during temperature rise means other mechanical properties can also remain unchanged.
- There is a wide range of temperature and friction mode for friction resistant application (e.g. scraping and colliding).
- High fracture resistance means good durability, and such property is required when physical abuse is expected.
- When physical abuse is expected to occur, tearing resistance must be accompanied by fracture resistance.
- During strong deformation, only stress-induced crystallization rubber has good durability, and low temperature curvature can also help to improve the impact resistance.
- Generally, high deformability means high fatigue resistance under deflection state.
- The less the permanent deformation, the better the structural integrity, the more it can maintain its original size.
- The better the elasticity, the less the internal heat increase in deflection or dynamic condition.
- The better the creep resistance, the longer the service life of products (especially when the product clearance must be kept constant).
- Stress relief is necessary for sealing or other frequently stressed products.
- For most of vibration buffering devices, good low temperature flexibility is necessary, and the initial swing and subsequent softness are more important.
- Oil resistance is the most important surface effect, and deterioration will not occur due to exposure in oil when the oil resistance is poor but volume is large enough.
