Why does rubber–metal bonding fail?
Jun 29,2026
The bonding of rubber to metal has a long history. Common methods include direct bonding, hard‑rubber bonding, brass‑plating, and adhesive bonding; among these, adhesive bonding is currently one of the most widely used and effective approaches. This paper examines the underlying bonding mechanisms and processing techniques, analyzes the various factors that can lead to failure in vulcanized rubber–metal adhesion, and proposes corresponding mitigation strategies.

Adhesion between unvulcanized rubbers is a common practice in the processing and manufacturing of rubber‑based adhesive products, where components are bonded or laminated to one another. Adhesion between unvulcanized rubbers typically relies on thermal bonding, as the rubber compounds generally exhibit superior adhesion when subjected to heat. During the calendering and extrusion of semi‑finished products, thermal bonding can be employed to join rubber components into a cohesive assembly.
Development Goals for the Rubber Additives Industry during the 15th Five-Year Plan Period
Nov 28,2025
The 15th Five-Year Plan period (2026-2030) marks the first stage in achieving the second centenary goal and is also a critical period for China to move toward the goal of basically achieving modernization by 2035. In the new era, the rubber additives industry needs to be guided by new thinking, new concepts, new models, and new business forms to achieve high-quality development.

Due to tight supply, Vietnamese rubber prices remain relatively strong, prompting cautious purchasing behavior among downstream buyers. On September 8, the spot price of natural rubber reached 15,416 yuan per ton, marking a weekly increase of 3.06%. Meanwhile, inventories in the Qingdao region fell by 1.66% from the previous week, standing at 592,300 tons, while raw material prices continued to stay high. From January to August 2025, Côte d'Ivoire's natural rubber exports totaled 1.05 million tons, up 14.4% compared to the same period last year. Although export volumes rose year-on-year in August, they declined on a monthly basis as the country continues to adjust its planting structure. In the first half of 2025, the rubber tire industry generally experienced a situation where revenues increased but profits did not—nine companies saw revenue growth, yet their profitability slipped.

Knowledge of rubber O-rings and rubber seal ring compound formulation design
Jul 25,2025
An O-ring is a rubber ring with a circular cross-section. It is called an O-ring because its cross-section is O-shaped. It is also called an O-ring seal. It first appeared in the mid-19th century, when it was used as a sealing element for steam engine cylinders.
