Experimental Study on the Mechanical Properties of Renewable Rubber Building Template

Abstract:

Discarded rubber is renewable resource, and the reasonable use of discarded rubber is conducive to protect environment and save energy. This paper designs rubber template with the thermoplastic elastomer which processed by waste rubber powder and plastic. The physical and mechanical properties of various materials are obtained, and the bearing capacity of renewable rubber building template is calculated and analyzed through mechanical test. The results indicate that the mechanical properties of 16mm renewable rubber building template are equal to 18mm plywood. The research establishes a preliminary foundation for the industrialization of rubber building template.
