Rubber sheets are used as the floor and roof covering agent as rubber has elasticity and are resistant of many chemicals. Rubber sheets are mainly used in industries as industries, but it has other applications also, for example, it is used in the agriculture sector also, and also for residential usage. There are various kinds of rubber sheets presented in the market. Neoprene Rubber Sheet is one of them. Many people don’t know what neoprene is. Let’s just have a watch what neoprene is? Neoprene is a polymer of chloroprene. It a part of the synthetic rubber family. Neoprene is available in both forms of latex and solid. Neoprene rubber sheets have various kinds of usage. Have a look at the application areas of neoprene rubber sheets: • The Engineering Sector: The engineering sector is composed of many heavy machines and instruments. And these rubber sheets are very resistible of these heavy instruments. • Many Industries: These rubber sheets are used in various industries as it has a long life, and the resistance against chemicals such as acids, alkaline, or any other is very high. • Aquatic Industries: The neoprene is widely used in the aquatic industry as it is moisture proof and doesn’t get slippery. • As House Essential: The neoprene is used for house purposes also for example to the sheets are used as bathroom mats, or it is also used to cover many devices such as laptops, computers, and many musical instruments. So, we understood the application areas of neoprene, but now see why neoprene is used so vital. Properties of neoprene rubber sheets: • These rubber sheets have excellent mechanical strength. • They are highly resistant to chemicals and petroleum products. • These sheets can survive extensive temperature variation, from too cold to too hot. • It is highly friction resistant, so it can be used in industrial purposes. • If it is exposed in UV rays then it is also resistant of the ozone gas also. • It can survive extreme weather conditions. For these reasons, neoprene is a widely preferable rubber sheet. Besides neoprene Silicon rubbers sheet is also being used in many sectors. These sheets are also very resistant to chemicals. And they are very strong. Silicon rubber sheets are widely used in the pharmaceutical industry. Silicon Rubber Sheets are naturally non-conductive. And could be used as a shield in the electrical industries. 5 Uses of silicon rubber sheets: 1. Silicon rubber sheets are highly temperature resistant, in any industry where temperature arouses abruptly, it is resistant to that. 2. It is resistant to many chemicals like acids and alkaline, many medical substances. 3. It has many a great abrasion resisting property for which it is widely used in the construction industry. 4. Silicon rubber shit is also used in the food processing industry as it can withstand up to 200-degree temperature. 5. It can also survive in extreme weather conditions. For these reasons, silicon rubber sheets are one of choice in the industry. So, by this, it is understood that why rubber sheet is widely used in many industry.as discussed above neoprene and silicon are the preferable rubber sheets. There are many forms of silicon rubber sheets; one of them is a food grade rubber sheet. It provides excellent resistance to oil and greases. It is a non-toxic element. It is available in many varieties with respect to the hardness, strength, size of the surface. The food grade rubber sheet is not only the polymer of silicon, but it is also available as a polymer of Nitrile, EPDM. It is used in many sectors but especially in food sectors as it is high temperature resistant and also resistant to the scratches that could be done by equipment of this industry. By this, we can have a conclusion that why rubber sheets are this important in any industry for the protection of that industry and their workers.
