Chloro isobutylene isoprene rubber (CIIR) and ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) compounded with other formulation chemicals, depending on the polymer blend, were prepared by mechanical mixing. After manufacturing the rubber vulcanizate by compression molding with a hot press, the mechanical and thermal properties including thermal conductivity, rebound resilience of the CIIR/EPDM blends were measured. As the EPDM rubber content increased, hardness and tension set showed a tendency to increase. Pure CIIR exhibited the lowest tensile strength; however, tensile strength increased with loading of EPDM rubber. On the other hand, in CIIR rubber, which is usually a low-rebound elastomer owing to a high damping effect, rebound resilience exhibited an increasing trend as the content of EPDM rubber increased. As the EPDM rubber content increased, thermal stability was improved due to reduction of decomposition rate in the rubber region of the blend vulcanizate.

Two-layer self bonding insulating tape consists of butyl rubber(IIR ; Isobutylene-isoprene rubber) adhesive layer and polyethylene protective film. Butyl rubber have inherent characteristics such as resistance to corrosion and water, low temperature flexibility, excellent electrical insulating properties also resistance to environmental effect such as ozone and ultraviolet. Polyethylene film was used for the purpose of good insulating properties and resistance to ozone and ultraviolet. The tape was manufactured using extrusion and calender method.

Purpose: To derive the optimal conditions for the Rubber based colloidal suspension manufacturing process, which made using a stirrer, to apply the mixture design method. Methods: We used two process component and one process variable Mixture design to derive the optimal conditions for the process. The response variables were selected for rotational viscometer measures which can represent Rubber based colloidal suspension quality. The input variables were selected as the values of rubber-organic solvent expressed in proportions as process components and stirring amount as a process variable which are controllable factors in the process. Results: Based on the results of the experiment, rubber and organic solvent and the interaction between stirring amount and rubber and the interaction between stirring amount and rubber and organic solvent were significant. Reproducibility of the regression model was confirmed by the observation that the values obtained from the reproducibility experiment fell within the confidence interval. Additionally, the model predictions were found to be in close agreement with the field measurements. Conclusion: In this study, a regression model was developed to predict the viscosity change of colloidal suspensions based on the proportion of rubber based colloidal suspension. The developed regression model can lead to improved product quality.

Rubber is used in many industrial products, such as hoses, rubber belts, and oil seals. In particular, more than 200 rubber parts are used in automobiles. The design technology of these parts is largely dependent on field experience, which leads to lengthy and expensive developing procedures. However, with the help of recent developments in nonlinear computer analysis, new rubber products can be developed at low cost. In this study, rubber injection molding design variables, such as location and number of gates, were optimized using computer-aided engineering with the cross-WLF equation to produce CLIP rubber products made from ethylene propylene diene monomer(EPDM). The validity of the proposed design was evaluated by comparison with actual forming results.

Predicting fatigue life of rubber components is an important issue in design procedure for industrial trucks to assure the durability and reliability. Main considerations in designing rubber components against fatigue failure are the compounding technology, shape design, and manufacturing process. Among them the rubber compounding technology is one of the most critical factor to determine more than 50% of component's quality. This paper presents how to improve the durability and reliability of industrial rubber mount during its design, development and prototype testing. The data presented illustrates explicitly the prediction of reliability growth in the product development cycle. The application of these techniques is a part of the product assurance function that plays an important role in rubber components reliability improvement.

The vibration and disturbances from operating the compact disk layer have an effect on the play ability. As the excitation sources of the compact disk player, there are the vibration of the motors and gears, impact by mechanical parts and the external excitations. So, most of the compact disk player have a anti-vibrational system, which is included some rubber or oil dampers. In this study, the vibration characteristics of rubber damper which is used home compact disk player are investigated. The materials and shape of rubber damper are changed, and the transmissibility is measured. As a conclusion, the natural frequency is moved to higher frequency and the transmissibility is reduced by the increasing rubber stiffness. In comparison to butyl rubber damper, the transmissibility of silicon damper was increased by larger restitution elasticity. The hollow damper was effective to reduced the transmissibility.

It is important to have a well developed strain energy function in order to understand the mechanical behavior of biomaterial like the blood vessel of artery. However, since it is not possible to have a complete form of strain energy function of artery, theoretical framework describing the behaviour of Rubber-like material which is similar to blood vessel is applied to infer useful forms of strain energy function of biomaterial. Based on Chuong-Fung model and Mooney-Rivlin model, material parameters are estimated based on experimental data. From the results, it can be inferred that the estimated parameters can be used to explain the difference of mechanical characteristics between normal vessel and vessel with stent.

This paper presents the formed tool to machine a milli-structure mold. The formed tool is used to machine the geometrical shape of bearing rubber seal for precision machining. The bearing rubber seal has milli-sized complex geometry. Because it is difficult to machine the unique shape exactly by the conventional tool, the formed tool is used in machining die of the bearing seal. In this paper, it is performed to investigate properties of the formed tool; tool wear, cutting force and machined surface roughness. Tool wear increases rapidly with clearance angle Increase. Thus, the dimension accuracy is affected by the clearance angle.

The mechanical and dynamic properties according to the content of filler, plasticizer, and crosslinking agent of rubber composites for Lipseal were measured in this study. The mechanical properties of the composite including the silane coupling agent and silica were found to be superior to those of the composite containing carbon black. It was found that the rebound resilience characteristics were influenced by the crosslink density of sulfur rather than the filler or plasticizer. In the case of recovery, it was confirmed that the elastic restoring force improved in the compression deformation condition and recovery increased as the crosslinking density increased. The rubber composite for Lipseal of this study is expected to improve the manufacturing technology of the rubber composite which can implement the optimum function for recognizing the performance such as oil resistance, durability and compression set.

Pneumatic tires usually contain a variety of rubber compositions, each designed to contribute some particular factor to overall performance. Rubber compounds designed for a specific function will usually be similar but not identical In composition and properties. Since 1970`s finite element analysis of tire has been performed extensively, which requires some energy density functions of rubber components of a tire. The conventional Mooney-Rivlin material model is one of the description that is commonly used in the analysis of tire. In this paper, we report the two material constants of gooney-Rivlin material model for some rubber compounds of a real pneumatic tire, which are obtained through uniaxial tension test.
