What are the applications of rubber airbags in the automotive field?
In 2007, China's auto production and sales were 8 million 882 thousand and 400 and 8 million 791 thousand and 500, respectively, an increase of 22.02% and 21.84% respectively. According to forecasts, by the year 2010, sales will exceed 10 million vehicles, with an average growth rate of 12%, when China's car ownership will reach 91 million vehicles. This will undoubtedly give the automotive industry related rubber industry, both production and supply, or social maintenance services to provide a huge market
China's expanding automotive market offers great opportunities and development opportunities for specialty rubber and further extends its application. At the same time, the performance and environmental protection requirements of automobile rubber products have been improved. Automobile industry drives rubber products market.
Rubber accounts for 5% of the total weight of automotive materials, with an average of 100200 rubber parts per car, with a total number of 200500. Along with the automobile reliability, environmental protection and energy saving requirements continue to increase, and rubber materials, product structure optimization, improve the heat resistance, low temperature resistance, long aging, oil resistance, leakage resistance, long-term fatigue, and further reduce the cost has become the main topic of the development of automotive rubber. Fluorine rubber, silicone rubber, acrylic rubber and other special heat-resistant elastic body will still be the mainstream of the future direction of the development of automobile rubber.
