The meaning of rubber blending
Improve process performance, performance and technical economics. About 70% of the rubber is processed and used in the form of rubber or rubber.
Rubber process compatibility
By mechanically or otherwise mixing the thermodynamically incompatible systems, a sufficiently stable blend can be obtained which forms a multi-phase morphology in the microscopic region but maintains its uniformity macroscopically.
Factors affecting polymer blending:
Mixing process conditions: time, strength, roll temperature, processing method
Formula composition: raw rubber, blending ratio, compatibilizer, processing aid

[Typical rubber and plastic use]
1. Blend of PVC and rubber:
Compared with NBR, NBR/PVC has improved strength, flame retardancy, abrasion resistance, solvent resistance and ozone crack resistance, and the processing properties and foaming properties of the sponge are significantly improved;
Second, PE and rubber blends:
PE and NR and other rubber blends have good effects;
Third, high styrene and rubber blend:
The high styrene and rubber blending material has high strength, wear resistance, easy processing, and smooth surface of the semi-finished product.
Four, three ethylene propylene diene monomer / polypropylene (EPDM / PP)
Excellent weather resistance, ozone resistance, UV resistance and good high temperature and impact resistance. Its oil and solvent resistance is comparable to that of general-purpose neoprene rubber. It can be processed by ordinary thermoplastic processing equipment. Low cost, continuous production and recycling.
