Introduction to Fluororubber (FPM, FKM) -SKY RUBBER

2025-12-08

Fluororubber refers to a group of elastomers whose molecular chains contain fluorine-containing side groups. There are 10 types, among which copolymers of vinylidene fluoride and perfluoropropylene, or with the addition of tetrafluoroethylene, are commonly used. In China, this type of rubber is called type 26 fluororubber, while DuPont calls it Viton -type fluororubber.

butadiene rubber (NBR) is a polymer formed by emulsion copolymerization of butadiene ( CH2=CH-CH=CH2 ) and acrylonitrile ( CH2=CH-CH-CN ), with an average molecular weight of around 700,000 . Rubber polymerized at 25 -50 is called thermopolymerized NBR. NBR is renowned for its excellent oil resistance. Among existing rubbers, its oil resistance is second only to polysulfide rubber, acrylate rubber, and fluororubber, making it widely used in the Rubber Industry.

Introduction to Butyl Rubber (IIR) -SKY RUBBER

2025-12-05

Butyl rubber, abbreviated as IIR , is an abbreviation for Isobutylene-Isoprene Rubber . It possesses excellent chemical and thermal stability, most notably its airtightness and watertightness. Its air permeability is only 1/7 that of natural rubber and 1/5 that of styrene-butadiene rubber , while its steam permeability is 1/200 that of natural rubber and 1/140 that of styrene-butadiene rubber. Therefore, it is mainly used in the manufacture of various inner tubes, steam pipes, water tires, dam bases, and gaskets, among other Rubber Products.

Introduction to Styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) -SKY RUBBER

2025-11-18

Styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) is a copolymer of styrene and butadiene. SBR can be classified into two types according to its polymerization method: emulsion polymerization and solution polymerization. The synthesis technology of emulsion-polymerized SBR was successfully developed by IGFarben in Germany in 1933. Solution-polymerized SBR was put into industrial production in the 1960s . It is estimated that in 2024 , the global SBR production capacity was approximately 6.817 million tons, accounting for about 30% of the total synthetic rubber production .
