    In order to reduce rubber cost of high-speed oil seals for automobiles, performance requirements for rubber materials used in high-speed oil seals are determined according to the application locations and operation conditions. The acrylic rubber formula is analyzed and designed from the aspects of raw rubber selection, reinforcement system, vulcanization system, aging system, wear resistance system, and processing system. Finally, the acrylic rubber formula for high-speed oil seals in automobiles is developed. The test shows that the developed acrylic rubber fully meets the performance requirements of rubber materials for high-speed oil seals, and can replace the expensive fluororubber material for large-scale application in automotive high-speed oil seals.

    In order to solve the issue of cracking in the polyvinyl chloride (PVC) fine sealing strips in the folded edge areas of passenger car doors, hoods, and trunk lids, and in conjunction with production manufacturing cases of PVC fine sealing strip cracking in the corresponding areas, the paper analyzes the cause of PVC cracking and proposes measures with metallographic analysis method. For the cracking caused by insufficient glue volume of folding edge glue, and sufficient inner and outer board bonding, measures are taken to increase the amount of glue, while ensuring the uniformity of the glue coating. For the cracking caused by external forces, measures are taken to optimize the PVC finishing process to avoid stress concentration. For the cracking caused by over-drying, measures are taken to control the drying time of the PVC. Through the above measures, the cracking are eliminated and solved.
