Vibration isolation rubber sheets

On the other hand [33], the mechanical properties were also measured in dynamic conditions. This new objective was to find valuable application for rubber stocks prepared by curing rnbber powder according to the method [32]. With the purpose to obtain materials able to act in vibration isolation in buildings, the results were concerned with not only the static bnt also the dynamic properties of these rubber-like materials for use in antivibration monntings. 

In terms of conclusions, rubber powder recovered from old tires is recognized as a valuable raw material that may be processed into useful products. Reference [33] exhibits the static and dynamic vibration properties of visco-elastic rubber materials, as well as their mechanical properties. At the optimum curing conditions (180 C, 10 min, 10 M Pa), the effect of sulfur and plasticizer on the vibration properties of the material are of interest. It is thus possible to prepare a material suitable for use in antivibration mountings, by choosing the right values of sulfur and plasticizer, according to the vibration characteristics of the machine (i.e., its mass and natural undamped resonant frequency).
