RD Rubber Technology Corporation, Mold a Variety of Synthetic Rubbers to Meet our Customers Project and Application Requirements
Santa Fe Springs, CA – At RD Rubber Technology Corporation, we mold a variety of synthetic rubbers to meet our customer’s project and application requirements. “Butyl rubber is one such material typically used for Aerospace and Defense applications where an airtight, moisture-resistant, shock-absorbing solution is needed, stated Maria Jose Monesterio, Vice President, RD Rubber Technology Corporation. Butyl rubber is highly durable and performs well in various weather conditions over time while providing proven long-term compression set performance. It is less porous and offers good chemical resistance compared to other elastomers while maintaining sufficient elasticity to form an airtight seal which makes it an ideal choice for critical to function applications including O-rings, gaskets, and seals. Chlorobutyl offers the same benefits as butyl rubber, such as tolerance to extreme weather conditions, low moisture and gas permeability, and vibration-absorbing capabilities. In addition, chlorobutyl rubber can be vulcanized more quickly, and it is more compatible with metals and other unsaturated rubbers.”
