Why is magnesium carbonate used in rubber bladders?

Do you know that when you sweat on the sports field, enjoy the fun of basketball, football and other ball sports, there is an important part inside the ball in your hand, it is the bladder. The bladder is a gas-filled support material made of rubber, which determines the elasticity, sealing and durability of the ball. And in the production process of rubber bladders, there is a magical raw material, which can improve the mechanical strength, wear resistance and aging resistance of the bladder, it is magnesium carbonate. Today, we will unveil the secret of magnesium carbonate in rubber bladders.

First of all, we need to understand what a bladder is. General ball sports (such as football and basketball) have an inner liner to support, most of which are gas-filled and shaped balls. This spherical inner liner is called a bladder. Bladders are mainly divided into latex bladders, natural rubber bladders and synthetic rubber bladders. Good bladders are made of imported rubber, which is the same material as high-grade car tire inner tubes, and are made by strict processing techniques.

Secondly, we need to know what role magnesium carbonate plays in rubber bladders. Industrial grade light magnesium carbonate can be applied to the production and manufacture of synthetic rubber bladders, mainly to increase the elasticity of the bladder, improve the friction resistance of the bladder and act as an isolating agent to prevent bubbles, air leakage or sand hole problems. Magnesium carbonate in rubber products makes them have high mechanical strength, good wear resistance, and corrosion resistance, etc., it is one of the compounding agents of rubber, plays a reinforcing filler role, and in the mixing operation process and other compounding agents evenly added to a certain plasticity of plasticized rubber, to produce uniform mixed rubber.

Rubber bladders can be used as ball skeletons after inflation, which are the main accessories in ball products, and have high requirements for the air tightness and viscosity of rubber materials. When using latex reclaimed rubber to produce rubber bladders, using magnesium carbonate together makes the vulcanized rubber scorch safety good, compared with calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate can further improve the mechanical strength and heat resistance of reclaimed rubber bladders.

Through the above introduction, we can see that magnesium carbonate plays an important role in rubber bladders, it not only improves the performance and quality of bladders, but also reduces production costs and risks. Magnesium carbonate is an efficient, safe and environmentally friendly rubber additive, worthy of trust and choice by rubber product manufacturers.
