Elastomer processing

elastomer use in industrial and everyday applications
elastomer formulation
general properties of elastomers: mechanical behavior, chemical resistance, etc.
Know the different elastomer application processes
Know the different elastomer assembly processes

The presentation will be broken down into several parts to meet the objectives described above:

Presentation of rubber applications in industrial applications and link with specifications
Formulation of elastomers
Process and implementation
Assembly of elastomers : from specifications to destructive testing
Examples - elastomers in aeronautics (description of parts, their function and their specifications)

Assessment will consist of a case study responding to an industrial problem. Apprentices (in groups of 2) will present their solutions in the form of an oral presentation.
Subjects will vary: drawing up specifications, study of an article, etc.
