Unlocking the Secrets of Rubber Lining: A Comprehensive Overview

Rubber lining is a critical process in various industries, providing protection against corrosion, abrasion, and chemical damage. In this comprehensive guide, we delve into the intricacies of rubber lining, exploring its applications, benefits, and best practices for optimal performance.

Understanding Rubber Lining

What is Rubber Lining?

Rubber lining involves the application of a protective layer of rubber to surfaces exposed to harsh environments, such as tanks, pipelines, and industrial equipment. This layer acts as a barrier, shielding the underlying material from corrosive substances and abrasive elements.

How Does Rubber Lining Work?

During the rubber lining process, specially formulated rubber compounds are applied to the surface of the substrate using techniques such as spraying or vulcanization. The rubber material bonds securely to the substrate, forming a durable and resilient protective barrier.

Applications of Rubber Lining

1. Corrosion Protection

One of the primary applications of rubber lining is corrosion protection. Rubber-lined surfaces are resistant to a wide range of corrosive substances, including acids, alkalis, and salts, making them ideal for use in chemical processing plants, wastewater treatment facilities, and mining operations.

2. Abrasion Resistance

Rubber lining provides excellent resistance to abrasion, making it suitable for equipment and structures exposed to abrasive materials such as sand, gravel, and ore. It helps prolong the lifespan of assets by minimizing wear and tear caused by friction and impact.

3. Chemical Containment

Rubber lining is also used for chemical containment applications, where it prevents leaks and spills of hazardous substances. Rubber-lined tanks, vessels, and containment structures ensure the safe storage and handling of corrosive chemicals, protecting workers and the environment.

Benefits of Rubber Lining

(i) Enhanced Durability

Rubber lining enhances the durability of industrial equipment and structures by providing an additional layer of protection against corrosion, abrasion, and chemical damage. This extends the lifespan of assets, reducing the need for frequent repairs and replacements.

(ii) Cost Savings

By reducing maintenance requirements and minimizing the risk of equipment failure, rubber lining helps organizations save on operational costs in the long term. Investing in high-quality rubber lining can lead to significant savings over the life of industrial assets.

(iii) Versatility

Rubber lining is highly versatile and can be customized to suit the specific requirements of different applications and industries. From standard rubber compounds to specialized formulations, there are options available to meet a wide range of needs.

Best Practices for Rubber Lining

(a) Proper Surface Preparation

Before applying rubber lining, it is essential to prepare the substrate properly. This may involve cleaning the surface, removing rust or existing coatings, and roughening the surface to promote adhesion.

(b) Selection of Suitable Rubber Compounds

Choosing the right rubber compound is crucial to the success of the lining application. Factors to consider include the type of chemicals present, operating temperatures, and the level of abrasion resistance required.

(c) Quality Installation

Ensure that rubber lining is installed by trained professionals using proper techniques and equipment. Quality control measures should be in place to verify adhesion, thickness, and overall integrity of the lining.

Conclusion

Rubber lining is a versatile and effective solution for protecting industrial equipment and structures from a variety of hazards. By understanding its applications, benefits, and best practices, organizations can optimize the performance and longevity of their assets, leading to improved safety, efficiency, and cost savings.

The synthetic biology and precision fermentation space is a hotbed of entrepreneurial activity these days. But it’s not every day you come across a startup that’s using genetic engineering to produce natural rubber — a substance that’s challenging to reproduce in a lab because of how long its polymer is. Paris-based baCta has a proof of concept up and running that uses engineered bacteria (Escherichia coli) to yield natural rubber in vitro. The startup says its method, which relies upon a renewable feedstock — currently it’s using glucose but is aiming to diversify into acetate and carbon — is carbon neutral.

Norway's reTyre  claims to be the world’s first carbon-neutral rubber-free all circular materials tyre

The tyre is crafted from 100% reclaimed materials to neutralise the product’s environmental impact, restore ecosystems, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions to zero.

By using algae, recycled para-aramid fibre, post-consumer recyclate and recycled fish nets, reTyre has reduced the product’s greenhouse gas emissions by 100% compared with conventional tyres.

“While we’re not the first to use recycled fishnets in the tyre industry, I have never known of algae, post-consumer recyclate and recycled para-aramid to be used before,” reTyre Brand Designer Friedemann Ohse, who is leading the Carbon-Neutral Project, told Zag Daily.

“We have learned a lot during this production phase and will use this when we move to mass production.”

Algae, which is incorporated in the tread, is sourced from algae blooms to restore aquatic ecosystems, prevent methane release and prevent eutrophication, which is when harmful algal blooms and dead zones develop after the environment becomes enriched with nutrients. According to reTyre, algae’s negative CO2 equivalent offsets the company’s remaining carbon emissions and contributes to a net-zero impact.

Recycled para-aramid is extracted from used body armour to protect the tyre against puncture, while post-consumer recyclate is sourced from local waste streams which have low levels of carbon dioxide.

“Post-consumer waste is not easy to use but it has an amazing impact. It also reduces the price of the tyre because it’s a waste which nobody wants to use.”

Friedemann anticipates wider use of para-aramid in the near future, and the company is currently implementing the material into many of its own products as well as the carbon-neutral tyre. 

The fourth sustainable material – recycled fish nets – is used for tyre casing. Fish nets are collected from oceans and reduce emissions by 49% and energy use by 15%.

reTyre says the carbon footprint of this tyre is based on a third-party Life Cycle Assessment verification, which includes almost zero emissions from production and transportation processes, and nearly zero end-of-life carbon emissions due to recycling of the tyres.

“This carbon-neutral tyre is at a concept stage and it is a result of continuous innovation that shows what our unique manufacturing is capable of.”

Rubber that doesn't grow cracks when stretched many times

Researchers from the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have increased the fatigue threshold of particle-reinforced rubber, developing a new, multiscale approach that allows the material to bear high loads and resist crack growth over repeated use. This approach could not only increase the longevity of rubber products such as tires but also reduce the amount of pollution from rubber particles shed during use. The research is published in Nature. Naturally-occurring rubber latex is soft and stretchy. For a range of applications, including tires, hoses, and dampeners, rubbers are reinforced by rigid particles, such as carbon black and silica. Since their introduction, these particles greatly improve the stiffness of rubbers but not their resistance to crack growth when the material is cyclically stretched, a measurement known as the fatigue threshold.

You made your icon? Do you have a bigger picture of them?

Sure! I had to dig through my camera roll for these since I don't have them on hand right now, but here they are, before and after painting!

I made them in with my school's 3D printers, a matching pair for me and my friend.

Unfortunately, they are very small, about 5 cm tall, so the pictures might not help much.

Six's raincoat took so many layers of paint, but it was worth it in the end!

i know I just reblogged a bunch of posts but this isnt a post just an observation: my phone keeps falling and I think its because they make these cases out of such weird exotic materials and plastics that you think you're putting your phone on a flat surface but 10 minutes later you hear your phone hit the ground and realize that its been sliding at a snails pace imperceptible to you and it moved 2 feet uphill across the desk just to fall.

can't believe one piece of all things is the manga that gets a good live action adaptation. one piece? really? unadaptable one piece? I've seen manga set in the real, modern world with worse live action adaptations than fucking one piece? honestly at this point there's no excuse for that awful netflix adaptation of death note if THIS is what actually caring about adapting manga to live action can look like

Innovative method uses oxygen and light to recycle unsaturated polymers

A study published in Cell Reports Physical Science showcases a novel method for the recycling of unsaturated polymers such as rubber and plastics. The paper, authored by Dr. Junpeng Wang, assistant professor of polymer science at The University of Akron, and a team of current and former students including Dr. Hanlin Chen '23, Dr. Devavrat Sathe '23, Xin Guan and Puyang Zhang, introduces a process using oxygen and light to help break down the polymers naturally. Since the 1950s, the mass production of plastics has resulted in the creation of approximately 8.3 billion metric tons of polymers. Unfortunately, the majority of these polymers have been discarded or incinerated, leading to significant environmental contamination.
