Rubber Roller Material Selection

1. Chemical Resistance – To meet the requirements of oil, solvent, and chemical resistance, a comparative selection of synthetic rubbers is necessary. For example, printing rollers must be resistant to solvents, oil, and acids.

2. Physical Properties – The physical properties of rubber, such as elasticity, flexibility, impact resistance, and abrasion resistance, affect the service life and product quality of the rubber roller. Careful selection is essential. For example, rubber rollers used in the plastic film industry must be highly elastic and wear-resistant.

3. Economic Efficiency – The price of rubber rollers varies greatly depending on the material chosen. Therefore, value and lifespan should be constantly weighed and compared. For example, ordinary heat-resistant rollers (150 degrees Celsius) require high-priced rubber.

4. Heat Resistance – High-temperature use easily causes rubber aging. Besides considering the cooling system in the core design, the rubber material must be carefully selected. For applications in the plastics and paper industries, not only wear resistance but also heat resistance and heat dissipation must be considered.
