What is the use of rubber as a strategic material

The wide range of uses of rubber

(A) rafter rubber and transportation

The rubber industry is developed with the automobile industry. In the sixties, the automobile industry and the petrochemical industry developed at a high speed, so that the production level of the rubber industry has improved greatly; into the seventies, in order to adapt to the automobile's high speed, safety and energy saving, eliminating pollution, preventing the need for public hazards, and so on, to promote the new varieties of tires, and so on, constantly out of the view. Raw material rubber consumption in transportation occupies a considerable proportion. For example; a liberation spleen 4 tons of heavy vehicles, rubber products need more than 200 kilograms, a hard seat carriages need to be assembled rubber products weighing more than 300 kilograms, a 10,000-ton ship on the need for rubber products nearly 10 tons of weight, a jet airliner needs nearly 600 kilograms of rubber. In the sea, land, air transportation, which are inseparable from the withdrawal of rubber products. As a means of transportation, tires are a major accessory. In recent years, in addition to the production of ordinary tires, but also vigorously develop radial tires, tubeless tires underground railways have also used rubber tires. Railroad vehicles and automobiles to promote the application of rubber spring reduction products, airtight rubber put. Large stores, stations, subways are also being used in the manned transportation belt. In addition, there are made of rubber "hovercraft", "hovercraft" and so on.

(B) rubber and industrial mines

The industrial sector requires large and small rubber products that are more, more varieties, a wide range of uses, some have special requirements. The main products are tapes, hoses, sealing gaskets, rubber rollers, rubber plates, rubber lining and labor protection products. In mining, coal, metallurgy and other industrial applications tape to transport finished products, around the world are constantly emerging, in order to large-scale production of Xiao want, but also produced a steel wire rope core transport belt and synthetic fiber transport belt. In recent years, mining mill rubber lining, forging rubber instead of manganese steel, service life increased two to four times, but also reduces the noise, this product Ba in the world to promote.

(C) rubber and agriculture, forestry and water conservancy

Agriculture, forestry and water conservancy development, but also hail a variety of rubber products, in addition to

tractors and agricultural machinery with a variety of tires, in the combine harvester needs to be used in the rubber crawler, irrigation ponds, water with the water with reservoirs using the rubber seepage layer and rubber dams, rubber boats, life-saving supplies, etc., the use of staff are growing, in the agricultural and sideline product Processing equipment and forestry, animal husbandry, fisheries technology and equipment, there are rubber accessories. Such as an iron cattle a 40-type wheeled tractor, the need for rubber products as many as 121 pieces. With the mechanization of agriculture, farmland water conservancy development, the need for rafter wave products will be more and more.

(D) rubber and military solid defense

Rubber is an important strategic materials, the application of military defense is very broad

Pan, for example, a tank to use more than 800 kilograms of rubber; 30,000 tons of warships to use the general sixty-eight tons of rubber, almost the military equipment, air force facilities, national defense projects have rubber footprint. The use of rubber made of ships, tents, warehouses and protective gear, water bath clothing and many other varieties. As for the perimeter defense cutting-edge technology needs of high temperature, low temperature, oil, high vacuum and other special properties of the rubber Constitution 0 product is indispensable. With the development of national defense modernization, the requirements can withstand -100 a 400 ℃ temperature range, and can resist a variety of acids, cities and oxidants with special properties of rubber, is being developed and produced.

(E) rubber and civil construction

Modernization of construction, rubber is very useful. For example, in the construction of

buildings on the use of glass Zeus sealing rubber strips, acoustic flooring, piggyback sponges, rubber carpets, rain-proof materials, as well as the use of milky paint coating drama walls. From the mid-sixties to install large rubber spring cushions in buildings to reduce the vibration and noise caused by the subway. Foreign countries are also trying to reduce the role of earthquake damage to the building of rubber cushions, the development of such rubber products is of great significance. Manufacture of hollow concrete components application of inflatable rubber soft rubber latex cement and rubber Chauqing in the construction project is becoming more and more widely used. Mixing latex into cement can improve the elasticity and abrasion resistance of cement. In the asphalt add 3% of rubber or latex paving road pavement, can prevent cracking of the road surface, and improve the impact resistance pieces. In the construction of the building resume the use of machinery, transportation equipment, protective gear, etc. have rubber products accessories.

(F) rafter limbs and electrical communication

Rubber is another characteristic of good insulation, not easy to conduct electricity. A variety of wires, t handle cables are made of rubber. Hard rubber is also used to make hose, rubber

Stick, rubber plate, partition and battery shell. In addition, it is also widely used as protective equipment insulated gloves, insulated rubber boots and shoes.

(VII) rubber and health

In the medical and health sector there are many rubber products in the application, such as hospitals, anesthesiology, urology, surgery, brain surgery, orthopaedics, five palace science, radiology and other recruitment of diagnosis, blood transfusion, urinary catheterization, gastrointestinal washing of a variety of rubber-colored surgical gloves, ice capsule, sponge cushions and so on are mostly rubber products. As accessories for medical equipment and instruments also have rubber products. Medical rubber products often have a special requirement for it, such as non-toxic, sterilization, physiological inertia, radiation resistance. Rubber towel of butyl rubber has a high degree of biological inertia, chemical stability and more slight water permeability and air permeability, used to process rubber bottle stoppers, can ensure high moisture absorption and anti-business and anti-cancer agent preservation. In recent years, silicone rubber in the manufacture of medical products more and more widely, such as the use of silicone rubber manufacture of artificial organs and human tissue substitutes have made great progress, but also use it to make drug capsules, into the body in the appropriate location, so that the capsule drugs slowly and continuously released, can improve the efficacy of treatment and relatively safe.

(H) rubber and commodity storage

Rubber is not only used for medical health cattle, but also applied to storage of fruits and vegetables. Since 1954 since the air-conditioning technology has made great progress, was rubber film is widely used in silicone rubber Zeus air-conditioned storage of fruits. Silicone rubber on Coa and 02 has superior permeability and appropriate permeability ratio. The ratio of the two is 6:1, that is to say: carbon dioxide diffusion rate through the silicone rubber window six times faster than oxygen. Than polyethylene plastic film into the carbon dioxide and oxygen about 200 times faster. According to different fruit and vegetable varieties of respiratory strength and the number of differences, made of various sizes of silicone rubber aegis dumplings embedded in the plastic film control, you can make the bag to maintain the right amount of c02 and o:, the formation of a good gas storage environment, thus inhibiting the respiratory strength of fruit and vegetables, slow down the metabolic rate, delay the process of fruit and vegetables after ripening, reduce water vaporization to prevent decay. From the storage of apple test comparison, using plastic film packaging storage for five months, natural consumption is o.7% below, the end of the natural consumption of up to 5.83%. Again, with silicone rubber film Zeus air-conditioned preservation of western red against all the green by a month of good fruit rate of more than 70%, weight loss of 3.6%, take out all the fruit can be normal red ripening. Do not use air-conditioning account of tomatoes within a week to turn red and ripe, can not be stored again.

(IX) rubber and education and sports

Commonly found in a variety of ball guts, ping-pong paddle sponge rubber surface, swimming foot manic, toys

People's ball, gold pen gallons, rubbing erasers, rubber traps, rubber thread, rubber stamps, rubber cloth, balloons and sponge cushions and so on, widely used in educational institutions, offices, design and drawing, and sports equipment, and so on.

(J) rubber and household goods

There are many rubber products in our daily lives in the service of us, all over the urban and rural residents to wear, it is B with a large consumption of rubber products. Others such as raincoats, hot water aid, loose purple belt, children's toys, sponge seat cushions and latex impregnated products, etc., in the people's life are playing its role.
