Gumifajták

Gumifajták refers to different types of rubber materials. Rubber can be broadly categorized into natural rubber, derived from latex produced by rubber trees, and synthetic rubber, which is manufactured from petroleum byproducts. Natural rubber is known for its elasticity, resilience, and good abrasion resistance. It is commonly used in applications like tires, gloves, and footwear.

Synthetic rubbers offer a wider range of properties, allowing them to be tailored for specific applications. Some common types of synthetic rubber include styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), which is widely used in tires and shoe soles due to its good wear resistance and cost-effectiveness. Nitrile rubber (NBR) is resistant to oil, fuel, and chemicals, making it suitable for seals, gaskets, and hoses. Neoprene rubber (CR) exhibits good resistance to weathering, ozone, and moderate oil resistance, finding use in wetsuits, automotive belts, and protective coverings. Silicone rubber (VMQ) is known for its high and low temperature resistance, as well as its flexibility and electrical insulation properties, making it ideal for medical devices, cookware, and electrical insulation. EPDM rubber is resistant to ozone, weathering, and heat, commonly used in automotive seals, roofing membranes, and electrical insulation. The choice of gumifajta depends on the required performance characteristics for a given application.
