METHOD OF MAKING A FENDER PROTECTIVE STRUCTURE

摘要

A method of making a fender protective structure is comprised of placing cured elastomeric spacers in a mold; pouring an alloy mix of crumb elastomer and plastic powder into the mold over the elastomeric spacers; providing a layer of plastic powder over the alloy mix; curing the plastic layer and the elastomer and plastic mix to thereby make an elastomer and plastic alloy; and, removing the elastomeric spacers, wherein the elastomeric spacers create voids in the alloy, and are easily removed because of the difference in thermal expansion between the cured rubber and the alloy.
