Neoprene rubber

Product description

Neoprene rubber
What is Neoprene Rubber?
Neoprene rubber is a rubber for oil and ozone resistance. Neoprene rubber, also known as polychloroprene or PC Rubber, is a versatile synthetic rubber that is resistant to oil, grease, weather. These properties make neoprene tires suitable for the automotive industry, parts that are exposed to oil or oil can be used this tire.

The resistance of neoprene rubber to oil and air also makes it suitable for several other industries that require a medium performance polymer with good balance everywhere. In addition to oil resistance and weather resistance, the high tensile strength and low compression strength of neoprene rubber make it an attractive synthetic rubber for outdoor use. Thanks to these factors, various industries such as public transportation, wire and cable, food preparation and construction benefit from neoprene rubber.
