CHEMOLINE soft rubber lining – un-vulcanized or self-vulcanizing:
Typical build-up, using CHEMOLINE 4 B as example
Un-vulcanized CHEMOLINE soft rubber lining products are normally vulcanized in an
autoclave. However they can also be vulcanized on the construction site with steam or
hot water. Specially developed rubber lining materials and adhesives can be used up to
an operating temperature of 120 °C after vulcanization.
Self-vulcanizing soft rubber lining compounds also vulcanize at ambient temperatures
over a longer period of time (months). For certain media, partial vulcanization is often
sufficient and full vulcanization then occurs under operating conditions.
