How Can Elastomers Satisfy Human's Demands?
With the quickly development of nowadays' technology and invention, it is necessary to create and discover a great number of high-tech materials or products to satisfy the huge requirements of people's daily life, so that the emerging material elastomers are found and used more and more widely at present in this background.
First of all, do you know what is the elastomer really is?
Elastomer is a polymer with viscoelasticity (having both viscosity and elasticity) and very weak inter-molecular forces. Generally speaking, elastomer having low young's modulus and high failure strain compared with other materials, which is derived from elastic polymer and often used interchangeably with the term rubber. Elastomers are amorphous polymers existing above their glass transition temperature, higher requirement and accuracy of temperature is using Laboratory Test Dispersion Kneader or Multifunction of Mass Production internal mixer, so that considerable segmental motion is possible. At ambient temperatures, rubbers are thus relatively soft (E~3MPa) and deformable. Their primary uses are for seals, adhesives and molded flexible parts. Application areas for different types of rubber are manifold and cover segments as diverse as tires, shoe soles, and damping and insulating elements. The importance of rubbers can be judged from the fact that global revenues are forecast to rise to US$56 billion in 2020.
For example, LINA dispersion kneader and open mill is leading other industries and gained a lot of national invention patents, kneading/mixing-LINA technologies and expertise can not only knead/mix rubber and plastic compounds with high-viscosity, but also low-viscosity semi-solids, various elastomers, ceramic powders and new materials such as different composites. The advantages of good dispersion kneading and extruding include clean up the material without dead corners; The mixing chamber and rotors of the dispersion kneader can be separated completely; All surface that directly contact with the material is mirror polished, which ensure all the materials easy to clean without stickiness. Wearable inner cavity was mported special new alloy steel and Vacuum heat treatment are adopted. Strong wear resistance, resistance to horizontal erosion, corrosion resistance and high glossy finish effects are achieved. Adjustable rotor speed ratio: The speed ratio of rotors is adjustable, which target at some special material function requirements and achieve best dispersion effect and efficiency. The kneader with adjustable rotor speed ratio is designed especially for those materials that are sensitive of temperature/high require of different temperature/fast change rate of temperature/fast and span molecular chain diversification. Temperature control system ensure the effect of ceramics' color difference. PLC intelligent control system is capable of remote importing of the process recipe and data monitoring, and communicating with MES via Ethernet communication interface. An Ethernet communication interface and 20% of the control points are reserved. Touch screen is provided.
We also can see the video that introduce the compounds, meaning, definition or explanation about elastomer in YuoTube, Google or other channels, rubber like solids with elastic properties are called elastomers. Polymer chains are held together in elastomers by weak intermolecular forces. These weak binding forces permit the polymers to be stretched. Natural rubber, neoprene rubber, buna-s and buna-n are elastomers.
Consequently, in my opinion, the progress and development of science and technologies must be served and satisfied the demands and convenience of human's life, it will be lower price costly, higher efficiency, longer service life such as LINA high-end Dispersion Internal Mixer, Two Open Mill and Granulator Line.
