Rubber is a versatile material with a wide range of applications, known for its elasticity and resilience. It can be either natural or synthetic.
Natural Rubber: Derived from the latex of the rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis). It is known for its high tensile strength and resilience.
Synthetic Rubber: Produced from petroleum byproducts. Examples include styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), neoprene, and silicone rubber. These can be engineered to have specific properties, such as resistance to oil, heat, or chemicals.
Vulcanization: A chemical process where rubber is heated with sulfur, improving its elasticity and strength. This process was pioneered by Charles Goodyear.
Applications: Rubber is used in a vast array of products, including tires, seals, hoses, gloves, and adhesives. Different types of rubber are chosen based on the specific requirements of the application.
Properties: Key properties include elasticity, tensile strength, tear resistance, abrasion resistance, and resistance to various environmental factors.
