Suspension bushings

Press-fit assemblies are extensively used in high-performance applications. PAI press-fit suspension bushings are used in race cars [20]. Drill bushings are press-fit assembled [21] solderless connectors are press-fit into printed circuitboards [22] compliant press-fit connectors are assembled with bi-spring press-fit contacts [23] security magnet sensors with crush-proof plastic casings are press-fit installed on doors, windows, and cabinets [24] and General Electric Home Security sensors are press-fit assembled [25]. 

Automotive concentric suspension bushes, where the rubber is bonded to the inner metal tube by conventional in-mould bonding, then bonded to the outer tube by a PV bonding technique,... 

Introducing halobutyl into natural rubber formulations for motor vehicle engine mounts, suspension bushings, steering couplings, and exhaust system mounts, all of which must withstand operating temperatures of 120°C or more, is one practical example. The halobutyl improves heat resistance, shock absorbency, and resistance to cut growth, ozone and the weather, at some cost in terms of heat build-up, permanent set and resilience (Table 26),... 

This article describes the effect of changes in the crosslinking system on the fatigue life and other properties in natural rubber suspension bushings. The effect of sulphur/accelerator ratio was determined for several properties that included fatigue life, crystallisation, friction and creep. 5 refs.

Uses Napropamide is a slightly toxic amide herbicide. It is grouped by the USEPA under GUP.13 Napropamide is a selective systemic amide herbicide used to control a number of annual grasses and broadleaf weeds. It also is applied to soil growing vegetables, fruit trees and bushes, vines, strawberries, sunflowers, tobacco, olives, and other crops. The formulations include emulsifiable concentrate, wettable powder, granules, and suspension concentrates.12...

Annatto is the seed of the bush, Bixa orellana, which is mainly found in Central and South America and in East Africa. Traditionally, annatto seeds are also used as a spice, often blended with other ingredients before addition to soups and meat dishes. The seeds grow in large clusters of capsular fruits that upon harvesting are dried in the sun, cracked open and taken out by hand. The basic colour pigment is bixin, a natural carotenoid that is found in the thin resinous coating of the seed, ft can be extracted in different ways to yield oil-soluble extracts, oil suspensions or water-soluble extracts.

The use of plastic substrates is increasingly common, especially in suspension system bushes, where its use reduces weight and eliminates the need to swage or calibrate the outer insert. An interesting development is the use of plastic interleaving, eliminating the need to expand the inner tube. It should be noted that this was the subject of a BTR AVS patent.
