Materials of the manufacture of boats
Particular attention should be paid to what material the boat is made. There are two main types:
Hipalon. Polyethylene elastomer (polychlorosulfate) – artificial material similar to rubber. To improve its strength, the bottom of the boat is lined with neoprene, separating the tissue layer from the main material in advance.
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Thermoplastic synthetic material that does not require improvement. Differs by strength and resistance to the action of acids, alkalis and various solutions.
In addition, it is important how exactly the boat is made. The most important thing in it is the quality of the seams.
They are made:
By gluing. This method is quite good for chipalon boats.
Using ultrasonic welding or volcanization. These methods are great for PVC boats.
It is also worth deciding for what purposes you buy an inflatable boat, which capacity is interested in. After its acquisition, do not forget about proper care – it is ideal to store the boat in an inflated state, thereby avoiding the formation of the bends of the material. After each use, wash it thoroughly with detergents. These straightforward rules will help to significantly increase the life of your boat.
