    Engineering Guide: Elastomer Selection

    Uploaded by

    Kevin Johnson
    The document discusses different types of elastomers used in rubber selection. It provides a table comparing the properties of various elastomers, including their temperature resistance ranges, tensile strength, hardness range, and resistance to factors like water, benzene, and ozone. The properties are rated on a scale of 1 to 6, with 1 being very good and 6 being inadequate. Rubber selection can be complicated due to the many possible combinations of polymers and ingredients, and focusing too much on one characteristic may negatively impact overall performance.

    Elastomer Selection
    Rubber is constructed in different basic elastomers (Polymers), according to the used polymer and the compound ingredients are below listed in the table under properties. Besides the material properties of a rubber mount, which is deducted by the structure of the recipe, it can be developed through constructively measurements of the elastic elastomer, so it could be perfectly adjusted to the required application. Because of endless of the combination possibilities of the polymer and compound ingredients, rubber selection can be complicated. And to add, the one-sided preference of one particular characteristic, the over all application performers can be adulterated.
