Keywords:
General-purpose rubber and plastic components refer to common accessories used in the rubber and plastic industries. “Rubber and plastic” is a collective term for the rubber and plastics sectors; both are by-products of petroleum and share the same origin. However, during the manufacturing process, their material properties differ significantly, as do their applications. Rubber is most widely used in tires, while plastics have seen increasingly broad applications driven by technological advances and market demand, becoming indispensable in everyday life. Simply put, the fundamental difference between rubber and plastic lies in their deformation behavior: plastics exhibit plastic deformation under load, whereas rubber exhibits elastic deformation. In other words, plastic deformations are difficult to reverse, while rubber deformations are much more easily recovered.
Product Details
General-purpose rubber and plastic components refer to common accessories made from rubber and plastic materials. “Rubber and plastic” is a collective term for the rubber and plastics industries; both are by-products of petroleum and share the same origin. However, during the manufacturing process, their physical properties differ significantly, as do their applications. The most widely used rubber product is the tire, while plastics have seen ever-expanding applications driven by technological advances and market demand, becoming indispensable in everyday life. Simply put, the fundamental difference between rubber and plastic lies in their deformation behavior: plastic undergoes plastic deformation, whereas rubber exhibits elastic deformation. In other words, plastic deforms but does not readily return to its original shape, while rubber does so much more easily. The elasticity of plastic is very limited—typically less than 100%—whereas rubber can achieve 1,000% or even higher. In most molding processes, once the shaping is complete, the product is essentially finished; in contrast, rubber requires an additional vulcanization step after molding. Both rubber and plastic are polymer materials, primarily composed of carbon and hydrogen atoms, with small amounts of oxygen, nitrogen, chlorine, silicon, fluorine, sulfur, and other elements. Their unique properties give rise to highly specialized applications. At room temperature, plastic is solid and rigid, unable to stretch or deform; rubber, by contrast, is relatively soft, elastic, and capable of being stretched and elongated, then returning to its original shape when the force is removed. This difference arises from their distinct molecular structures. Another key distinction is that plastic can be recycled and reused multiple times, whereas rubber cannot be directly recycled for reuse—it must first be processed into reclaimed rubber before it can be used again. Furthermore, plastic maintains its form between about 100°C and 200°C, while rubber behaves similarly between about 60°C and 100°C; plastic, however, does not include rubber.
How long does it take for general-purpose rubber and plastic components to age?
0.5–1 year: General engine rubber and plastic components continuously age as the vehicle is driven; driving on roads can lead to aging within 0.5–1 year. With prolonged use, plastics deteriorate rapidly.
The heat generated during vehicle operation also accelerates the aging of plastics.
