Neoprene Sheets: Comprehensive Physical Properties & Dimension Guide

Technical Grade Comparison: CR, CVS & SBR Rubber Material Performance Data


Neoprene Material Selection: Engineering the Perfect Fit

Understanding the correct rubber grade is essential for the ultimate performance of your final product. Neoprene is commonly categorized by the amount of Polychloroprene it contains. We offer three core grades: CR (100% Polychloroprene), CVS (CS blended grade), and SBR (Styrene Butadiene Rubber). Each grade provides a different balance between elasticity, pressure resistance, and cost-efficiency, helping you make an informed decision for professional wetsuits, sports supports, or industrial gear.

Advanced Manufacturing Technology & Thickness Range

Our commitment to excellence extends to our sophisticated Neoprene Technology & Manufacturing Process. From initial rubber foaming to precision fabric lamination (stretching from 0.5mm to customized depths), our manufacturing expertise ensures a high-quality product that meets the rigorous demands of global industries. Beyond standard splitting, we offer versatile Thickness Range: 0.5mm to 16mm for technical specifications.

Key Physical Properties & Technical Data

To ensure your products can withstand rigorous environmental challenges, we provide a comprehensive physical properties guide. Use the technical tables below to compare critical parameters with precision:

  • Tensile Strength: CR grades offer superior structural integrity, reaching up to 15 kgf/cm², making them the premier choice for high-performance extreme sports gear.
  • Elongation Break: Our materials exhibit excellent flexibility with elongation rates ranging from 300% to 480%, ensuring maximum mobility during active use.
  • Compression Set: For long-term pressure environments such as deep-sea diving, we provide professional data to help you select grades that resist deformation and maintain their shape under high pressure.
  • Precision Hardness: Utilizing the Asker C scale, our neoprene hardness is fully adjustable from ultra-soft 2-3 to high-support 15-20, catering to your specific ergonomic requirements.
