				 This paper concerns an eco-friendly manufacturing process for low density compressed sheet gaskets used to maintain gastight properties regarding gases and liquids. The main raw materials in a low density compressed sheet gasket are latex, organic/inorganic textile, and fillers; in this research, a sheet gasket was continuously manufactured without using organic solvents through a method called the paper making process. The results demonstrated properties such as compressibility, recovery, tensile strength, oil resistance, and high temperature leakage, properties suitable for sealing materials. The production environment also improved dramatically as organic solvents were not used during the manufacturing process, and production efficiency was increased as well... Read More»
