Description
Summary:This paper presents the fabricating process of elastromeric mount and their mechanical properties results. Four types of rubber were used to fabricate elastromeric mounts. They are from types of natural rubber (SMR CV-60), synthetic rubber, ekoprena and pureprena. SMR CV-60 is conventional rubber normal grades products from natural rubber. Synthetic rubber is rubber products from petroleum. Ekoprena and pureprena are advance rubber products from natural rubber. Before fabricate elastromeric mount, the rubber compound is designed based on actual mount such as shear modulus, hardness and static stiffness. A few processes have done to make the elastomeric mount such preparation of raw materils, mixing and curring process. Cured compound rubber and elastromeric mount were tested in the laboratory in order to determine their mechanical properties such as hardness, tensile strenght, compression set, static stiffness and dynamic stiffness. The results from static tests showed that elastomeric mount from SMR CV-60 rubber, ekoprena and purepena closed to actual mount except elastomeric mount from synthetic rubber.
