Introduction Rubber is one of the most used raw materials across different industries. Both natural and synthetic rubber is used extensively to make everything starting from the tiniest of home goods to massive structures used in industries. There are different types of...

The tensile strength of rubber is a very important factor that determines the quality of the polymer chosen. Tensile strength tests are also part of quality checks to determine whether a finished polymer product is of expected quality. Tensile strength determines how...

Many industries prefer vulcanised rubber over traditionally processed rubber because the former is stronger, more durable, and can handle extreme temperatures much better. Vulcanisation is a relatively new process and has existed for only a few centuries. This blog will take you...

Rubber extrusion is the process of turning rubber into a product with a specific and intended shape and size. Depending on the end shape, different rubber extrusion profiles can be available. Arvico Rubber has many standard extrusion profiles for commonly used products...

Can a very simple and fuss-free product make a significant impact on several industries at the same time? Say hello to the versatile and absolutely vital part of most components and machinery – the O-rings. O-Rings or O-ring seals are loop-shaped elastomers...

Introduction It is very common to expect elastomers to deteriorate over time. Both natural and manufactured rubbers deteriorate and go through aging and other kinds of changes over time, which affects their performance. However, the extent of impact and the time it...

Introduction Molded rubber parts are some of the most used components across industries. Molding is the process of converting natural or synthetic uncured rubber into a usable product by molding it into a shape and design of choice. In this process, a...

Introduction There are two basic types of rubber – natural and artificial (synthetic). Natural rubber is derived from the latex of the rubber tree and is flexible, moldable, strong, and has a high stretch ratio. All these features have made it one...

Introduction There are so many kinds of rubber on the market right now. The features of rubber depend on whether the rubber was extracted naturally or produced synthetically and the kind of additives and catalysts added during the production process. That is...

Arvico Rubbers is one of the few Indian brands that understand the customers’ needs perfectly well and design rubber components that are precise, perfect, and match the requirements 100%. One such component we create is expansion joints rubber. Here is everything you...

PTFE Diaphragms – Introduction Arvico Rubber’s PTFE diaphragms are some of our portfolio’s most commonly ordered components, thanks to their exceptionally resistant properties and strength. Did you know that PTFE was discovered accidentally? It was discovered in 1938 by an American chemist...

What is EPDM Rubber?          EPDM Rubber (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer rubber) is one of the most commonly used synthetic rubbers these days. The properties of EPDM rubber is any material that is produced using petroleum products. Synthetic rubbers are used for various...

Introduction If you work in an industrial setting or run one, there is no way you haven’t heard of a rubber diaphragm. These very humble components find usage in many applications across various industries. Some vital processes may not function without diaphragms...
