In different applications like tyres, belts, and oil seals, situations where resistance to fatigue with improved life span is desired, and in gaskets, and electronic and electrical equipment, conventional type rubbers are reinforced with filler materials to enhance their physical, electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties. Compared to the conventional rubber/rubber composite-reinforced fillers, the addition of nanomaterials has gained extra attention in recent years, and these are called nanocomposites [40,61]. Nanomaterials have unique properties which are changed due to their size reduction in any one dimension, like chemical (reactivity or catalysis), thermal (melting temperature), electronic (electrical conductivity), optical (scattering or absorption of light), or magnetic (magnetization) properties [40]. Among various types of nanomaterials, CNTs are one of the most attractive reinforcements used in the rubber nanocomposites, due to their high aspect ratio, flexibility, diameter in the nano range, and physical, mechanical, and electrical properties along the axis of the tube. MWCNTs have greater advantages than SWCNTs or DWCNTs in the range of possible industrial applications and low production cost, which can also provide similar composite properties [40,62,63]. In nanocomposites, uniform dispersion of the CNTs plays a very important role in increasing the properties of the developed material. This is because of the bonding between the nanotubes being very high and ending up in a cluster formation [63]. In recent research, MWCNTs/SWCNTs were used as reinforcements and mixed with caoutchouc or natural rubber matrix material to obtain an MWCNT/SWCNT–natural rubber nanocomposite (nanostructures), by adding the CNTs into a polymer solution like acetone, dimethyl formamide, toluene, or tetrahydrofuran and mixing either by high-energy sonication, magnetic agitation, or mechanical mixing. Simultaneously, in addition to the poor solution, the solvent gets evaporated and obtains better dispersion of nanotubes. It is a better method to achieve uniform dispersion and distribution of nanotubes into the matrix material. One major constraint for this method is neglecting the improper solubility of polymer into the solvent to carry out the next process [40]. Also, MWCNTs improved the mechanical and electrical properties of other types of rubbers, such as chloroprene, acrylonitrile–butadiene, styrene butadiene rubber, and ethylene–propylene–diene monomer [62].

• Oil seals are an essential component of many industrial machines and equipment. They play a crucial role in preventing oil leaks, protecting bearings and other crucial parts from contamination, and ensuring the overall smooth operation of the machinery. One popular and widely-used size of oil seal is the 75x100x10 model.

  
  
• Routine Inspections: Schedule regular inspections of the oil seals to spot any signs of failure, such as leakage, hardening, or visible wear. Catching issues early can prevent minor problems from escalating into significant failures.
• 3. Reduced Maintenance Costs Thanks to their durability, thick rubber gaskets require less frequent replacement, resulting in lower maintenance costs over time.

  • Replacing the front hub oil seal is a relatively simple and inexpensive maintenance task that can save you from costly repairs down the road
    
    front hub oil seal. Most mechanics recommend replacing the front hub oil seal every 60,000 to 80,000 miles, but this can vary depending on your driving habits and the conditions in which you drive.

  • The most important function of an oil seal is to protect all types of sleeves, roller bearings, and balls located in the rotary shafts. These seals also prevent two fluids from mixing, such as water and oil.

  • Oil leaks are more than just a mess; they signal a loss of the lubricant crucial for your engine's health. As the oil level drops, engine components run the risk of overheating or even seizing up, leading to costly repairs or, in severe cases, engine failure. Moreover, the introduction of dirt and debris through a compromised gasket can cause wear on the camshaft and valve train, reducing the engine’s efficiency and longevity.
  • Moreover, auto gaskets come in various forms to cater to specific needs. Oil pan gaskets prevent oil leaks from the oil pan, while intake manifold gaskets seal the connection between the engine block and intake manifold, allowing air and fuel to enter the cylinders efficiently. Even small components like valve cover gaskets, though often overlooked, play a significant role in keeping oil from seeping out of the engine.
  • Relatively less maintenance and cleaning are required. It makes mechanical seals cost-effective.
  • The 7mm spark plug wire diameter offers several advantages over its thinner counterparts. Firstly, it provides enhanced resistance against voltage leaks, ensuring a consistent and powerful spark delivery. This is crucial as a weak spark can lead to misfires, decreased fuel efficiency, and engine damage. The thicker wire also reduces the likelihood of interference with radio signals, a common issue with some vehicles.
