The superiority of the end product hinges on the quality of the ingredients that go into the compound. All ingredients are carefully selected based on the product application. Rubber samples can be reverse engineered with effective and precise compound analysis to learn what went into them.
WHY RUBBER?
Used from the bottom of the ocean to outer space
