safety shoes are rubber soles. What are their advantages and disadvantages

As the sole of safety shoes is made of different materials, including leather sole, rubber sole and polyurethane sole, the advantages and disadvantages of different soles are different. What 1 want to introduce to you today is the advantages and disadvantages of rubber sole:

rubber sole is divided into natural rubber and recycled rubber by hot compression molding. 1t is not oil-resistant in weight. When molding the bottom, it must be roughened on the fitting surface. 1t is easy to shorten when heated, and the color is inconsistent

safety shoes manufacturers said that their advantages are: good wear resistance, anti-skid, elastic, not easy to break, good softness, good extensibility, stable shrinkage, good hardness, good bending, waterproof. Disadvantages are: heavy, easy to spit frost (quality problems), not easy to corrosion (environmental problems); Not hard, easy to be pierced through; The air permeability and moisture absorption are not good, so it is not suitable to wear in the place contacting with oil such as gas station

rubber foam: it is lighter than rubber sole, has rubber smell, can be used with fingers on time, the surface rebound is more obvious than ordinary sole, and has poor wear resistance

high pressure polyethylene rubber sole: the sole is mainly composed of high pressure polyethylene and rubber flavor, and rubber and plastic are used together

raw rubber bottom: heavy, expensive, not resistant to oil and heat, easy to change color
