(general mechanical rubber goods)

Various polymeric materials, which include, inter alia, caoutchouc and rubber are finding increasing usage. Materials with predetermined properties can be obtain based on chemical compounds using high-molecular compounds by way of polycondensation and polymerization.

Unlike natural latex rubber, synthetic rubber produced by polymerization of monomers with catalysts. When at high temperature added sulfur, selenium or tellurium (curing) of natural or synthetic caoutchouc, get the final rubber. Properties of the rubber mixture can be modify by the addition of softeners, accelerators, colorants and other components. Thus obtained rubber waterproof, has high elasticity, absorbs vibrations, able to resist abrasion and tearing.

General mechanical rubber goods are divide into two types according to production technology: molded and not molded.

Molded general mechanical rubber goods includes cushioning parts, sealing and cushioning components such as o-rings of different cross-section, cuffs rubber sealing, dustproof goods, the rubber shock absorbers, etc. Molded rubber products are manufacture from mixture simultaneously with its vulcanization in a mold mounted on a press, or injection molding.

Group of non-molded industrial rubber goods includes pressure-suction sleeves, high pressure hoses, rubber hoses, V-belts, conveyor belts, rubber tubes, rubber cords, profiles of various sections, as well as products used as seals for windows, doors, sealing of joints, construction panels, etc. Non-molded rubber products are manufacture as profiled wire harnesses of different lengths and cross sections - by extrusion of rubber compound and subsequent vulcanization of the semi-finished product in boilers or apparatuses of continuous action.
