Rubber compounding facility

Calorpyro has an internal compounding machine that enables us to fully control the quality of the compound and helps us to adhere to client and project specifications.

Rubber compounding is the science and engineering of rubbers and rubber ingredients, such as processing aids, fillers, and curing agents, in specific proportions to produce a homogenous combination with appropriate physical and chemical qualities to fulfill processing at low cost and end-use performance. The features of other elements as well as the nature of elastomers affect the ultimate attributes of rubber goods. Rubbers must be physically tested in order to be used in product design, manufacturing, quality assurance, and performance.

Making durable and affordable products requires the use of the proper rubber compound. To enhance the ultimate performance, rubber compounding has undergone numerous advancements. To create materials with superior qualities, it is crucial to understand the fundamentals of rubber compounding.

One key issue that is given top priority is the requirement for the creation of an economic and environmentally sustainable method of solving the global challenges of the 21st century.

WHAT IS A RUBBER COMPOUND?

Before starting the vulcanization, or curing, process, rubber compounding is the science of blending a specific rubber mixture, including rubber and chemicals. In essence, it’s all the effort put into creating the ideal recipe for your product. The main objective of rubber compounding is often to obtain specific physical and chemical characteristics without significantly raising the cost.
