Rubber Molding Terms
– A rubber compound’s
capability to withstand mechanically caused deterioration.
– A test made to replicate in a short period
of time the breakdown resulting from normal working conditions.
– A substance that increases the speed of vulcanization
when used in small quantities in conjunction with vulcanizing agents.
– A compound used to increase the effectiveness of an
accelerator, small amounts at a time.
– Tendency of rubber to cling or bond to any surface it
contacts.
– The continuance of vulcanization, even after the energy
source has been taken away.
– Depressions and marks on the surface of rubber, caused
by air trapped during the molding process.
– Uses steam under pressure to vulcanize rubber products.
– A defect in the molding process, where the rubber near
the parting line sinks below the surface and the parting line ends up
ragged and torn.
– The result of a mixing operation.
– Rubber compound that fills a mold.
– A discoloration of rubber, caused by a liquid or solid
migrating towards the surface.
– The necessary force to start the sliding between
a rubber seal and its mating surface.
– The development of a powdery residue on a rubber surface
as a result of surface breakdown.
– Small cracks on the surface of rubber, usually from
environmental damage.
– The permanent deformation of rubber after removing
the compression.
– Rubber that is able to conduct electricity.
– A chemical bond between polymer chains.
– The date of completion of the molding process for a
rubber product.
– Any of a variety of processes for waste edge removal
from molded rubber parts.
– The application of force used to evenly disperse various
compounds through rubber.
– An instrument that measures the hardness of rubber.
– Applying powder to rubber to prevent adhesion to something
else.
– A seal necessary for the prevention of leaks beyond
parts that are in relative motion.
– A characteristic of rubber, describing its tendency
to return to its initial shape after warping.
– Extension of rubber when exposed to stress.
– A machine that forces rubber through a hole that shapes
it into the finished product.
– The wearing out of elastomers after repeated
deformations.
– The flexing capability of a material with no
permanent deformation or breakage.
– Capability of uncured rubber to move in the mold and runner
system in the molding procedure.
– Rubber processed on a rubber mill
that has a much greater viscosity than liquid silicone rubber.
– The process of mechanical energy changing to heat
in rubber under strain.
– A material that rubber is chemically or physically bonded
to during the molding process.
– Slow recovery rate of rubber after stress.
– The softening of raw rubber by mechanical and atmospheric
forces.
– A chemical compound that is able to endure polymerization.
– A defect that occurs when the rubber does not completely
fill out the mold.
– A line on the surface of rubber resulting from where
the two halves of the mold met.
– A material that is used to quicken the softening of
rubber compounds under heat or mechanical action.
– An insoluble compound that gives rubber its color.
– The degree to which rubber will retain deformation.
– Chemical reaction in which one or more simple
materials are transformed into complex materials that have different
properties from the originals.
– A substance that is added to rubber to increase
its resistance to the harms of the vulcanization process.
– The result when rubber vulcanizes too quickly.
– Extra material that leaks from the mold as it closes.
– The term for the uniting of two parts of vulcanized rubber
to make a whole.
– A thermo-setting
reaction that involves the use of pressure and heat, and results in highly
increased elasticity and
strength of materials like rubber.
