He rauemi maha ngā whakamahinga o ngā matū rapa, ā, kua noho hei mea nui i roto i ngā umanga hou. Mā te whakaranu i ngā pūmua turanga me ngā whakakī, ngā mea whakapūmau kirihou, ngā mea whakaora, me ētahi atu tāpiringa, ka taea e ngā kaihanga te whakarite i ngā āhuatanga miihini, wera, me te matū kia tutuki ai ngā hiahia motuhake. E rua ngā wāhanga matua o ngā matū rapa: te rapa tūturu (NR) me te rapa hangai. Ka wehea anō ngā rapa hangai ki ngā momo whānui me ngā momo motuhake. He āhuatanga ahurei kei ia akomanga e whakatau ana i tōna pai mō ngā umanga rerekē.
1. Rapa Taiao (NR)
I ahu mai i te rapa o te rākau Hevea brasiliensis, e maiohatia ana te rapa maori mō tōna kaha kume, tōna ātete ki te haehae, me tōna ngāwari. He tino pai hoki tōna ātete ki te ngenge hihiri me te iti o te wera e puta mai ana i raro i te kawenga huringa. Heoi, he iti te ātete o te NR ki ngā hinu, ngā whakarewa, te ozone, me te hihi UV, ā, ka heke tōna mahi i ngā pāmahana teitei.
Ngā Whakamahinga: He whānuitia te whakamahinga o te rapa maori i roto i ngā potae mō ngā motuka pāhihi, ngā taraka, me ngā waka rererangi, inā koa i ngā taha taha me ngā takahanga e tino hiahiatia ana te ngāwari me te pakari. Ko ētahi atu whakamahinga ko ngā whitiki kawe, ngā ārai wiri, ngā puna rapa, ngā piripiri, ngā karapu rapa, ngā poihau, me ngā kapu hu.
2. Rapa Hanga – Ngā Momo Whānui
Kua hangaia ngā rapa hangai whānui hei whakakapi, hei tāpiri atu rānei ki te rapa maori i roto i ngā tono nui-rahi, kia pai ake ai te ātete ki te koroheketanga, te pakū, te wera rānei.
· Rapa Styrene-Butadiene (SBR): Ko te rapa hangai tino hangaia, he pai te ātete ki te pakū, te pumau ki te tawhito, me te pupuri makuku, ahakoa he iti ake te kaha kume me te ngāwari i te NR. Koia te mea nui rawa atu i roto i te umanga potae (ngā takai), tae atu ki ngā whitiki kawe, ngā ngongo, ngā gaskets, ngā taera papa, me ngā kapu hu.
· Rapa Polibutadiene (BR): He tino ātete ki te pakū, he iti te hysteresis (he iti te ngaronga pūngao), he tino ngāwari ahakoa i ngā pāmahana iti, he maha ngā wā ka whakaranua te BR ki te NR, ki te SBR rānei hei whakapai ake i te ātete ki te kakahu. Kei roto i ōna whakamahinga ko ngā takahanga potae me ngā pakitara taha, ngā pōro korowha, ngā taupoki roera kawe, me ngā whakarerekētanga pānga mō ngā kirihou.
· Rapa Butyl (IIR): E mōhiotia ana mō tōna ātete tino pai ki te hau me ngā hau, me ōna āhuatanga whakamākū pai me te ātete ki te ozone. He mea nui te IIR i roto i ngā ngongo o roto, ngā arai o roto o ngā potae, ngā pūwero whakamaroke, ngā aukati rongoā, me ngā wāhanga o te kopare hau.
3. Rapa Hanga – Ngā Momo Motuhake
He mea hanga ngā rapa motuhake mō ngā taiao tino kino e pā ana ki te wera nui, ngā matū kaha, te wahie, te huarere rānei o waho. He nui ake te utu engari ka taea te whakamahi i ngā mahi nui.
· Rapa Nitrile (NBR): He ātete tino pai ki ngā hinu, ngā wahie, me ngā whakarewa e ahu mai ana i te hinu, me ngā āhuatanga miihini pai puta noa i te whānuitanga o te pāmahana (–35°C ki te +120°C). Ko te NBR te paerewa mō ngā ngongo wahie, ngā hiri hinu, ngā mowhiti-O, ngā gaskets, ngā ngongo waipēhi, ngā karapu mō te whakahaere matū, me ngā roera tā.
· Rapa Chloroprene (CR – Neoprene): He elastomer taurite e tuku ana i te ātete hinu ngawari, te ātete pai ki te rangi me te ozone, te ātete mura, me ngā āhuatanga miihini pumau. He whānuitia te whakamahinga o te CR i roto i ngā whitiki motuka (whitiki wā me te whitiki serpentine), ngā koti taura, ngā wetsuit, ngā hanganga piri, ngā peera piriti, me te tango huarere.
· Rapa Ethylene-Propylene (EPM/EPDM): He ātete tino pai ki te wera (tae atu ki te 150°C), te ozone, te UV, te mamaoa, me ngā wai porowhita, engari kāore e hototahi ki ngā hinu me ngā wahie. Ko te EPDM te mea nui mō ngā ngongo pūnaha whakamatao motuka, ngā hiri huarere, ngā kiriuhi tuanui, te whakamarumaru hiko, ngā arai roto, me ngā wāhanga pūnaha parai.
· Rapa Hiraka (Q): Me te whānuitanga ratonga mai i te –60°C ki te +230°C (neke atu rānei mō ngā taumata motuhake), ka whakaratohia e te rapa hikareti he ngāwari pai, he ārai hiko, he hototahi ki te koiora, me te ātete ki te tukunga korona. Ka whakamahia i roto i ngā ngongo hauora, ngā whakaurunga, ngā nipples pounamu pēpi, ngā whāriki tunu, ngā ārai ngaohiko teitei, ngā hiri rererangi, me ngā hononga papapātuhi.
· Ngā Fluoroelastomers (FKM, Viton®): Ko te kōwhiringa tino pai mō te ātete matū me te wera nui. Ka tu tonu ngā FKM tae atu ki te 250°C, ā, ka ātete hoki ki te nuinga o ngā hinu, wahie, waikawa, me ngā whakarewa. Kei roto i ngā tono ko ngā hiri miihini rererangi, ngā mowhiti-O o te pūnaha wahie motuka, ngā gaskets tipu matū, ngā taputapu hanga haurua-ira, me ngā wāhanga keri hinu.
4. Ngā Elastomers Thermoplastic (TPE)
Ahakoa ehara i te rapa thermoset tikanga, ka whakakotahi ngā TPE i te ngāwari rite ki te rapa me te ngāwari tukatuka rite ki te kirihou. Ka taea te hangarua i ngā TPE, ā, kāore e hiahiatia he whakamaroke. Ko ngā momo noa ko ngā copolymers poraka styrenic (SBS, SEBS) me ngā polyurethanes thermoplastic (TPU). Ka whakamahia ēnei ki ngā kakau pā-ngāwari, ki ngā kiri o roto o ngā motuka, ki te whakakikorua i ngā taputapu hauora, ki ngā kapu hu, me te whakamahana waea.
Tirohanga Whānui o te Ahumahi
· Waka me te Waka: Ko te kaihoko nui rawa atu o ngā matū rapa. Ko ngā potae (NR, SBR, BR, IIR), ngā ngongo (NBR, EPDM), ngā hiri (FKM, NBR), ngā whitiki (CR, EPDM), me ngā whakairinga wiri (NR) e whakawhirinaki katoa ana ki ngā whakatakotoranga rapa motuhake hei whakarite i te haumaru, te whai hua, me te roa.
· Hanganga Ahumahi: Mā ngā whitiki kawe (NR, SBR), ngā roera (NBR, PU), ngā gaskets (ngā momo rerekē), ngā hiri waipēhi (TPU, NBR), me ngā papa wehewehe wiri (NR) ka taea te whakahaere i ngā wheketere me ngā mīhini.
· Rererangi me te Ārai: Ka whakamahia ngā rapa mahi-teitei pērā i te FKM me te silicone mō ngā hiri pūnaha wahie, ngā mowhiti-O waipēhi, ngā paraikete wera, me ngā hiri pēhanga kāpini, ina kore e taea te pakaru.
· Hauora me te Tiaki Hauora: Ko te rapa silicone me te rapa butyl te mea nui rawa atu mō ngā pūwero werowero, ngā puru ipu, ngā ngongo, me ngā whitiki taputapu ka taea te mau nā te mea he hototahi ki te koiora me te āheinga ki te whakahoromata.
· Hanganga me ngā Hanganga: Mā ngā kiriuhi tuanui EPDM, ngā gasket matapihi CR, ngā papa whāriki piriti NR, me ngā hiri silicone ka ārai i te huarere, ka tautoko i te whakawhānui, ka roa hoki te ora o ngā whare me ngā kaupapa miihini ā-iwi.
· Taonga Kaihoko: Ko ngā kapu hū (SBR, BR, TPE), ngā taonga hākinakina (pōro korowha, tara ruku – NR/CR), ngā karapu whare (NR, NBR), me ngā pouaka taputapu hiko (TPE) e whakaatu ana i te maha o ngā whakamahinga o te rapa i roto i te oranga o ia rā.
Whakamutunga
Ko te whakarōpūtanga o ngā matū rapa ki roto i ngā elastomers taiao, ngā elastomers hangai whānui, ngā elastomers hangai motuhake, me ngā elastomers thermoplastic e whakaata ana i te whānuitanga o ngā whakaritenga mahi puta noa i ngā ahumahi. Mai i te SBR iti te utu i roto i ngā potae motuka ki te FKM utu nui i roto i ngā miihini jet, ko ia matū rapa he rauemi i hangaia marietia e whai wāhi ana ki te haumaru, te whai hua, me te auahatanga. I te putanga mai o ngā tono hou i roto i ngā waka hiko, te pūngao whakahou, me te hangarau mau, ka whai wāhi tonu te whanaketanga o ngā matū rapa matatau ki te pūtaiao rauemi me te hangarau.
