Recycling of Butyl Rubber cured with Phenol-Formaldehyde resin
Butyl rubber (IIR) is characterized by low permeability of gases and different vapours. This advantage is the reason for the use of IIR for the production of car and motorcycle tubes, manufacturing of inner liners in tubeless tires, special tires and insulation of electric cables, in the production of anticorrosive coverings of chemical equipment, absorbers, hoses for hot liquids and chemical agents, membranes for tires vulcanization, conveyor belts resistant to high temperature, glues for rubber fabrics and protective clothing as well.Weiterlesen...
