The use of reclaimed rubber to produce rubber products has become the mainstream method of reducing costs, and more and more rubber product companies are beginning to choose reclaimed rubber. Various types of hose products that are closely related to our lives are produced using latex reclaimed rubber and also produced using silica gel. Many rubber product manufacturers do not know whether to choose latex or silicone when choosing materials for hose production.

Rubber hoses made from latex reclaimed rubber and hoses made from silica gel are different in many ways.

1. Different elasticity: The reclaimed rubber in reclaimed rubber has better elasticity, but relative to the silicone, it is relatively fragile; therefore, the elasticity of the hose produced using latex reclaimed rubber will also be very good, while the use of silica gel to produce the hose is brittle and elastic. Lacking.

2, different colors: LaTeX reclaimed rubber in the selection of raw materials for production is not very single, so the production of white reclaimed plastic when the color is not particularly pure, slightly yellow, generally can not be made transparent hose (transparent white pure latex reclaimed rubber can produce transparent Hose); and silica gel is colorless and transparent, if the production of transparent hose must use silicone raw materials.

3, the use of latex reclaimed rubber produced hose products will have some flavor, some manufacturers may add odors, odor agent to cover up the smell; in the production of some pacifiers and other odorless transparent hose, silicone material should be selected raw materials, Silica gel has better resistance to high and low temperatures than latex reclaimed rubber.

The rubber hoses produced from latex reclaimed rubber are different from the rubber hoses produced from reclaimed silicone rubber and are used in different occasions. Therefore, customers need to choose suitable raw materials according to their own physical properties: we cannot say that latex reclaimed rubber is better than Silicone, also can not be one-sided that the production of silica gel hose than latex reclaimed rubber, as long as to meet customer demand, is the best hose.

The raw materials of latex reclaimed rubber are waste natural rubber and waste latex products. White latex reclaimed rubber can be used to produce various light-colored hoses and transparent hoses, such as medical hemostatic hoses, stethoscopes, etc., with good elasticity, high tensile strength, and high quality. The latex reclaimed rubber is environment-friendly and odorless, replacing natural rubber to produce various white and light colors. Transparent hose can significantly reduce the cost of raw materials.
