The main raw materials of EPDM reclaimed rubber are EPDM head rubber, unvulcanized ethylene propylene rubber, waste EPDM sealing strips, etc., which are processed through processes such as crushing, desulfurization, and molding, and retain the basic EPDM rubber Performance characteristics, can be used together with EPDM virgin rubber, or directly replace the original rubber to produce EPDM rubber products, significantly reducing the cost of raw materials. In actual production, the application field of EPDM reclaimed rubber is basically the same as that of EPDM rubber.

1. Application of EPDM reclaimed rubber in automobile industry

EPDM rubber is widely used in the automotive industry due to its good elasticity, ozone resistance, weather resistance and other advantages. Car sealing strips, radiator hoses, air-conditioning hoses, rubber pads, hoses, etc. will all use 2YLYY415 three EPDM rubber; part of EPDM rubber is also used in automobile inner tubes, white sidewalls, tire strips and other parts. In actual production, EPDM reclaimed rubber can be blended in various automotive industrial products in an appropriate proportion to reduce the cost of raw materials.

2. Application of EPDM reclaimed rubber in the construction industry

EPDM reclaimed rubber retains the excellent water resistance, heat resistance, cold resistance, weather resistance, etc. of the original EPDM rubber. It can replace all or part of the EPDM rubber in the construction field, mainly including plastic sports fields and waterproof membranes. , Door and window sealing strips, pipe sealing, sanitary equipment, etc., of which door and window sealing strips, waterproof membranes and plastic runways are the main positions of EPDM reclaimed rubber in the construction industry.

3. Application of EPDM reclaimed rubber in electronic and electrical

EPDM rubber has good weather resistance, electrical insulation and corrosion resistance. Therefore, many electrical components in the electronics and electrical industries use EPDM rubber. The most common one is wire and cable, using EPDM or EPDM/ PP-produced cables have better electrical insulation performance and longer service life; in actual production, transformer insulation pads, electronic insulation sheaths, etc. will use EPDM rubber.

EPDM reclaimed rubber has the basic performance characteristics of EPDM virgin rubber, and can also replace a certain proportion of EPDM virgin rubber to prepare more cost-effective rubber products in the electronics and electrical industries.

4. EPDM reclaimed rubber is used together with other types of rubber

EPDM reclaimed rubber can also be used together with other types of rubber to further improve the process performance of the rubber and the performance of the product, and effectively reduce the cost of raw materials. For example, the combined use of EPDM reclaimed rubber and butyl rubber can improve the ozone resistance, aging resistance, surface finish of the extrudate and the anti-deformation performance of the semi-finished product when parked. A small amount of EPDM reclaimed rubber can also be used for the modification of nitrile rubber, neoprene rubber, natural rubber and other rubbers, further expanding the application fields of EPDM reclaimed rubber.

In actual production, EPDM reclaimed rubber can be used in daily necessities, sports equipment, mechanical equipment and other fields. Compared with the high-priced EPDM virgin rubber, EPDM reclaimed rubber has a lower price and is more effective when used together with other types of rubber. With the continuous progress of EPDM reclaimed rubber production technology, the application fields of EPDM reclaimed rubber will become wider and wider in the future.
