How is neoprene used.
Answers
Answer:
Industrial uses. Chemical inertness makes the material especially valuable for industrial applications, including corrosion-resistant coatings and as a base for various adhesives. Neoprene is also used in sealing gaskets, especially in relation to electricity, due to its heat and static resistance.
Electrical and electronic uses. Neoprene’s fire and static resistance explain why it is commonly used in power transformers, light bulbs, wires, and other electrical applications as an insulator. It is also used as a protector for electronics such as laptops for the same reason, as well as its cushioning abilities.
Safety equipment uses. The material’s ability to continue to function in a wide range of temperatures while providing thermal resistance and remaining flexible makes neoprene fabric an ideal fit for gloves and other protective wear. Neoprene’s oil, chemical, and water resistance provide additional protection.
Marine uses. As a result of neoprene’s water and thermal resistance properties, it is also used in wet-suits and diving-suits—nitrogen is added to increase insulation which increases overall buoyancy, so the suits must be weighted to prevent them from floating or pulling the diver back toward the surface. However, because neoprene contains air-pockets and is subject to compression as pressure increases, the efficiency of a neoprene wet-suit decreases as water depth and distance from the surface increases.
Automotive uses. Neoprene can be used to make automotive parts, as it is abrasion, tear, solvent, oil, and weather-resistant, as well as heat and fireproof. It can be found in window and door seals, hose covers, belts, vibration mounts, and shock absorber seals.
Medical uses. Thanks to neoprene’s flexibility, wearability, and ability to keep its shape over time, it is used to make supports and braces, including wrist, knee, and elbow supports.
Packaging uses. Because neoprene is a soft rubber by nature, it is also a useful source of padding and reinforcement for certain fragile applications.
Construction uses. Thanks to its weather, temperature, and compression resistance, neoprene is used in washers, bridge bearing pads, elevator astragals, and other construction materials.
