2. Sustainable flooring - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sustainable_flooring

   Rubber flooring used to be made from a rubber tree, a 100% renewable resource. Today styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), a general-purpose synthetic rubber, produced from a copolymer of styrene and butadiene is used for "rubber flooring". It is easy to install and maintain, is anti-static and provides effective sound insulation and vibration ...

3. Rubber cement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubber_cement

   Rubber cement (cow gum in British English) is an adhesive made from elastic polymers (typically latex) mixed in a solvent such as acetone, hexane, heptane or toluene to keep it fluid enough to be used. This makes it part of the class of drying adhesives: as the solvents quickly evaporate, the rubber solidifies, forming a strong yet flexible bond.

   Poured rubber surfacing: This is a seamless rubber surface composed of two layers that is poured in place (PIP). The first layer, or "wear layer", is typically 3 ⁄ 8 inch (9.5 mm) thick and made of EPDM or TPV granules. The second layer, or "cushion layer", is 1–5 inches (25–127 mm) thick and made of crumb rubber or recycled rubber tires.

   Rubberized asphalt is the largest market for crumb rubber in the United States, consuming an estimated 220 million pounds (100 kt), or approximately 12 million tires annually. [2] Crumb rubber is also used as ground cover under playground equipment, and as a surface material for running tracks and athletic fields. [2]

9. Two roll rubber mill - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_roll_rubber_mill

   Rubber compounding means incorporating rubber ingredients into a rubber mixture so it is evenly dispersed, then the rubber mixture is called a rubber compound. The mill aids in two main steps of rubber processing - mastication and mixing. Mastication is when the raw polymer is sheared and the broken down to create an easier flow. This allows ...
