Can you use recycled rubber flooring with underfloor heating?
yes
What arethe Uses of clay shield and rubber tubing?
The clay shield and rubber tubing are useful in heating during experiments. The rubber tubing connects the Bunsen burner to the gas outlet. The tubing enables the water to cool as it flows through the condenser during the distillation process.
Why does rubber or plastic contracts due to heating?
Because it is poor conductor of heat... so stress is developed when heat is suppliead casusing the contraction!
Why do they use nitrogen in tyres?
Nitrogen is a stable gas. It is not over heating in tyres.
What is valcanising?
Vulcanization is the process by which rubber molecules (polymers or macromolecules made of repeating units or monomers called isoprene) are cross-linked with each other by heating the liquid rubber with sulfur. Cross-linking increases the elasticity and the strength of rubber by about ten-fold, but the amount of cross-linking must be controlled to avoid creating a brittle and inelastic substance.
What can heat do to a rubber?
On heating rubber contracts instead of expanding
Why is Solar pool heating now producing black spots in water?
the rubber in the heating is degenerating because of wear.... only fix is to replace the rubber

Does rubber keep ice from melting for a long time?
Yes
Why does your washer smell like burnt rubber?
probably being over used and the rubber inside is burning and melting....
Can you use recycled rubber flooring with underfloor heating?
yes
What type of compound will have a high melting point and conduct electricity?
rubber
When does rubber melt?
It doesn't. Tire rubber (and rubber in general) has vulcanized properties that keep it from melting. The only way you can accuire melted rubber is to have it ordered form somewhere that sells it.
What is the melting point of a rubber band?
Rubber in tyres is a mixture of many things; latex, chalk, carbon, rosin, sulphur or some other vulcanization, etc. Such a mixture is quite unlikely to have a single melting point. A softening point may be a better term. This point is easily within the reach of super-heated steam, which is the main process heat. From memory (and that's not too good) it was in the vicinity of 300oF. It is heated with a vulcanizing agent to create cross links of polymerization. Latex has a lower melting point.
What is the calorific value of rubber?
The high heating value of rubber (8600 kcal / kg) is used to generate heat energy
How does rubber stop an ice cube from melting?
It insulates it, keeping the cool in and the heat out.
How made Lego?
Lego is made by people taking rubber and melting it into plastic.
