Rubber Sheet

Types of rubber

Specialists in the development of elastomers for applications in the industries of:

  • Automotive.
  • Construction.
  • Food Industry.
  • Chemical.
  • Timber Industry.
  • Waste & Recycling.
  • Shipping and Engineering Industries.

We offer rubber sheet in thicknesses from 1 up to 150 mm in different hardness of between 30 and 90 º Shore A. To adapt to any requirement, a range of different finish options are available: smooth on both sides, one or both sides with fabric impression, engraved with patterns of diamonds, squares, circles, etc.

We formulate and can prepare all kinds of rubber compounds over a wide range:

NR natural rubber sourced from Southeast Asia

The natural rubber presents excellent mechanical, electrical and dynamic properties and good resistance to acids, salts and bases.

It presents a very wide range of hardness, from 30 to 90 Shore A, and its field of operating temperatures can be as high as 90ºC.

Note: Natural rubber must not be used in the presence of fats, hydrocarbons, vegetable oils or mineral oils.

SBR synthetic rubber, copolymer of styrene and Butadiene

Styrene-Butadiene Copolymer is the most widely used synthetic rubber.

Temperature range: -40 to 110°C. With hardness between 40 and 90 Shore A.

Its mechanical properties are similar to those of natural rubber, although slightly lower. However, it has better resistance to aging and heat. It also has good resistance to a large number of inorganic chemicals.

CR Polychloroprene

Commonly known as Neoprene or Chloroprene.

Its compounds have a temperature range between -25 and 125°C, with hardness between 40 and 80 Shore A.

It is the elastomer that offers the best overall set of properties. It has mechanical properties comparable to those of natural rubber, combined with good chemical resistance to inorganic substances, but not to organic ones.

It is self-extinguishing and does not propagate flames.

EPDM — Ethylene-Propylene-Diene Monomer Rubber

A copolymer of ethylene, propylene, and a third diene monomer, such as norbornene.

Depending on its vulcanization system (sulfur/sulfur donors or peroxides), it can achieve a wide application temperature range from -25°C to 150°C.

It has excellent resistance to weathering, ozone, and UV rays. It is widely used for water contact applications. However, it performs poorly in the presence of oils or greases.
