Natural rubber is a natural polymer compound and is the most widely used general rubber material. This article describes the characteristics of natural rubber and natural rubber sheets.

Natural rubber sheet is a special rubber sheet made of natural rubber material extracted from plants. Nature rubber is a natural polymer compound. Natural rubber sheets are widely used in shopping malls and is the most widely used general rubber material.

Firstly, we will introduce the characteristics of natural rubber.

Chemical properties of natural rubber: Natural rubber is resistant to light, heat, ozone, metals and other substances. When an anti-aging agent is added to natural rubber, its expectancy life will be much longer. It is still safe and sound even though exposure to the sun for 2 months. Even after being stored in the warehouse for 3 years, it can still be used normally.

Physical properties of natural rubber: Natural rubber has good insulation, excellent elasticity at room temperature, and is not easy to deformed.


Chemical properties of natural rubber: Natural rubber has good alkali resistance, but it is not resistant to strong acid, and its oil resistance and solvent resistance are also poor, especially for non-polar solvents.

Natural rubber has excellent processing properties and is easy to mold, press, and shape.

The following is a brief introduction of natural rubber sheets' characteristics .

1. The natural rubber sheet has excellent elasticity, its modulus of elasticity is 3-6 MPa.

2. Natural rubber sheets have high mechanical strength.

3. Natural rubber sheet has excellent processing technology performance. It is easy to perform machining and pasting molding such as rolling and pressing.

4. Natural rubber sheets have good gas permeability, water resistance, cold resistance, electrical insulation and thermal insulation properties.

5. However, natural rubber sheets are not resistant to aging.

6. Since natural rubber is a non-polar rubber, the natural rubber sheet is extremely poor in oil resistance and strong acid resistance.

7. Natural rubber sheet has strong alkali resistance and certain polar resistance.
