[0002] A rubber hose is a hollow flexible tubular rubber product. Its tube body structure is mainly composed of an inner rubber layer, a skeleton layer and an outer rubber layer. The material of the skeleton layer can be cotton fiber, various synthetic fibers, carbon fiber or asbestos, metal wire, etc. A rubber hose without a skeleton layer is a pure rubber hose. Generally, the materials of the inner and outer rubber layers are usually natural rubber, styrene-butadiene rubber, and cis-butadiene rubber; for oil-resistant rubber hoses, nitrile rubber and chloroprene rubber are selected; for acid and alkali resistant and high temperature resistant hoses, ethylene propylene rubber, chlorosulfonated polyethylene rubber, fluorine, silicone rubber, etc. are selected. Among them, the outer rubber layer can also be replaced with materials such as synthetic fiber and stainless steel wire according to working conditions. The rubber hose is a crucial supporting product in rubber products, and it has a very close relationship with all fields of the national economy. Especially in promoting the development of industry, agriculture, mining, transportation and national defense scientific research, it plays a very important role. The uses of rubber hoses are extremely extensive. They are usually used to transport or suck various gases, liquids, viscous fluids and powdery solid materials under positive or negative pressure conditions. Summarizing the working conditions, common types of hoses include: water pipes, hot water pipes, steam pipes, hydraulic pipes, chemical pipes, air pipes, etc. The use of air pipes: mainly used in industries such as mines, construction, engineering, shipbuilding, and steel production to transport air, inert gases and water, etc. Due to the influence of its own use environment factors, the air pipe for aircraft needs to increase the flame retardant performance.
