4. Material transport
Conveyor belts are made up of a textile (polyester or polyamide) or metal carcass sandwiched between two rubber covers, one on the load-bearing side and the other on the running side. Depending on the properties required, the basic elastomers used for the load-bearing side are :
SBR for improved abrasion resistance;
NBR for improved oil resistance;
EPDM or CR for better temperature resistance of both layers.
