Neoprene Rubber Sheets

Features of Neoprene Rubber Sheets

• It has a high tensile strength with range of 500 to 3000 psi and a maximum elongation of up to 600%. This makes it good in industrial settings and other environments where there is a lot of movement.
  
  
• It can operate in wide temperature and is able to withstand temperatures as low as -46^oC, and as high as 135^oC.
  
  
• Neoprene has good resistance to chemicals, water, heat, flames, oxygen and ozone. It has more resistance against water, solvents and heat compared with natural rubber.
  
  
• The material is also good against weather and sunlight meaning that it ages well and does not need replacing too often. Neoprene has a low oxidation rate and is UV and ozone resistant.
  
  
• Neoprene also has very good flame resistance and is one of the few self-extinguishing rubbers.
  
  
• Its strong water resistance also makes it popular for many waterproof applications.
  
  
• Neoprene Rubber Sheets offer good elasticity and resistance to bending
  
  
• It is an extremely versatile synthetic rubber offering oil, petroleum, and weathering resistance.
  
  
• Neoprene rubber was the first synthetic rubber, invented in 1930 in response to rising demand for natural rubber.
  
  
• Neoprene is a non-toxic synthetic material used everywhere from the clothing to medical to marine to automotive industries.
  
  
• Despite its chemical inertness, neoprene is useful for its ability to tolerate petroleum-based mixtures including solvents, oils, and greases, alkalies, mineral acids and some salt solutions, as well as methyl and ethyl alcohols.
