[Case Study on Problem Solving through Surface Treatment] Prevention of Adhesion to Conveying Rolls of Uncured Rubber

The effect of preventing sticking lasts a long time! It has become possible to reduce costs and working time.

■Concern The manufacturing process of weatherstrips involved transporting extruded rubber on rolls while heating and drying it in a furnace. Due to changes in the rubber material formulation for environmental measures and durability, it became necessary to process the rubber at higher temperatures than before, resulting in the rubber becoming sticky immediately after entering the furnace. ■Issues It was confirmed that when a common fluoropolymer coating was applied to the transport rolls, the rubber would stick to them like a suction cup. ■Effect of Surface Treatment By adopting our "Super TP Coating," we significantly reduced the rubber's stickiness and achieved a relatively soft contact surface. 【Key Points】 ■Purpose of Surface Treatment: Quality and operational stability, reduction of work loss, compliance with safety and environmental requirements ■Required Functions: Non-stick and release properties, long lifespan ■Adopted Treatment: Super TP Coating *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

basic information

【Achieved Effects】 ■ Even if the coating on the contact surface wears off, a layer of fluororesin with release properties remains, allowing the anti-stick effect to last longer. ■ Significantly reduces rubber sticking while achieving a relatively soft contact surface due to its unique curvature. ■ Maintenance can be done every two months, resulting in reduced costs and working time. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
