Where is the rubber crumb used?
- A rubber-based mixture is used in the creation of automobile wheels, wide tires and other rubber products.
- Also, such a crumb can be used to increase the resistance of tires to mechanical stress and bends. At the same time, their service life increases.
- A mixture of rubber can be used to create a wide variety of products and elements..
- A crumb on a rubber base with dimensions less than 0.63 mm is used to create bitumen. It is also in demand for the production of mastics, waterproofing for various purposes, in the production of polymer products, brake pads and many other rubber technical products (RTI).
- Rubber chips ranging in size from 0.63 mm to 1 mm are used in road construction in the manufacture of bitumen materials of astringent properties. Rubber chips are introduced into bitumen in a ratio of 14-15 tons per 1 km of roadway. The crumb is also used as a sorbent to eliminate leaks in oil wells.
- The rubber crumb is used in the creation of stadiums, running fields, basketball, volleyball, badminton fields.
- If coating elements are created for floors of technical workshops and workshops with an aggressive environment, then isoprene rubber with a crumb content of 75% and particle sizes of 2 mm is used.
- Rubber chips are used in the manufacture of curbs, street tiles, steps with rubber edges, mats. The specific weight of rubber chips in the production of rubber tiles and paving stones is more than 80%.
- A crumb made of rubber with dimensions from 2 to 5 mm is used when filling football fields with artificial turf, as well as to create various sports equipment.
- In the production of structural fiber concrete, rubber crumbs are added in a certain proportion to a dry cement-sand mixture. It is used for deep filling of foundations. Floor coverings and ladders, in places where there is an intense flow of people. It is used for both indoor and outdoor spaces. Fiber-concrete, due to its properties, is used in regions with harsh climatic conditions, including permafrost regions.
- Finishing building material. Thiokol (polysulfide) system, as a standard material and a fraction crumb (less than 1 mm) form a resistant covering material, both finishing and decorative wall material are used.
- For the manufacture of car parts. Bumpers, mudguards, oil seals, mats, luggage compartment troughs, handles, etc. Small fraction rubber chips are used as an additive in various automotive mastics.
- For plugging wells during drilling, waterproofing of green formations, for the manufacture of a sorbent for collecting petroleum products from the surface of water and soil.
