Transparent rubber hose is a kind of piping material with high transparency, excellent heat and acid and alkali resistance. Its unique transparent properties allow users to easily observe the inside of the pipe, thus ensuring the purity of the fluid and the proper functioning of the piping system. Transparent rubber hose is widely used in beverage industry, medical industry, industrial fields, laboratories, as well as homes and public places and many other aspects.
1. Transparent rubber hose production process
Preparation of raw materials: select high-quality transparent rubber raw materials, such as silicone rubber or EPDM rubber, and add fillers such as reinforcing agent (e.g. transparent silica), heat-resistant agent, modifier.
Mixing: Mix the raw materials and fillers in the mixing machine to ensure that the components are evenly distributed.
Extrusion molding: The mixed rubber is extruded through the rubber extruder to form the initial form of the tube. For hoses with interlayers in the middle, it is also necessary to extrude the inner and outer layers separately through two extruders and to knit the threads on a knitting machine.
Cooling and Shaping: The extruded rubber hose is cooled and then fixed into the desired shape by means of a shaping core.
Vulcanization: The shaped rubber hose is sent to the vulcanization tank for vulcanization treatment to improve its physical properties and chemical stability.
Cutting & Inspection: Cut the vulcanized rubber hose into the required length and conduct quality inspection to ensure the product meets the standard.
2.Transparent rubber hose customization
Size customization: According to customer’s demand, we provide customized transparent rubber hose with different diameters, wall thicknesses and lengths.
Material selection: according to the use of environment and fluid characteristics, recommend the most suitable transparent rubber materials, such as silicone rubber, EPDM rubber, etc..
Color customization: Although transparent rubber hose is mainly transparent, we can also provide other light color or transparency customization service according to customers’ requirements.
Performance customization: According to customer requirements, the rubber hose is adjusted for heat resistance, acid and alkali resistance, aging resistance and other properties to meet the needs of specific application scenarios.
3.Transparent rubber hose material introduction
Material: silicone rubber, EPDM rubber, etc.
Characteristics:
High transparency: Transparent rubber hose has high transparency, which can clearly observe the fluid inside the pipe.
Good heat resistance: it can be used for a long time in high temperature environment without deformation and cracking.
Good acid and alkali resistance: it can effectively resist the erosion of harmful substances, and will not corrode or deteriorate even after long time use.
Good sealing performance: the connection is tight, not easy to leak, keep the inside of the pipe clean.
4. Transparent rubber hose characteristics of different materials
4.1 Silicone rubber transparent tube:
Heat-resistant temperature: 200 ℃ can be used for a long time, -60 ℃ is still flexible.
Electrical insulation properties: dielectric strength in the range of 20-200 ℃ is almost unaffected by temperature.
Ozone and ultraviolet radiation resistance: long-term outdoor use without cracking.
4.2 EPDM transparent tube:
Heat-resistant temperature: can be used at higher temperatures, the specific temperature range is adjusted according to the formula.
Acid and alkali resistance: can effectively resist the erosion of a variety of acid and alkali solutions.
Good elasticity: good elasticity and recovery, not easy to deform.
