Mu rwego rw'ubwubatsi bw'imihanda, uduce twa kabutura tugira uruhare runini kandi rudasimburwa mu guhindura kabutura no kunoza imikorere y'umuhanda. Iyo bivanze neza na bitumen, uduce twa kabutura ntitwongera gusa ubushobozi bwo guhangana n'ubudahangarwa bw'imivange ya kabutura ariko nanone twongera ubushobozi bw'imivange bwo kwihanganira imitwaro isubiramo imodoka, bityo bikagabanya imiyoboro, imiyoboro, n'ibinogo mu gihe cy'impinduka zikomeye z'ubushyuhe - byaba ari uguteka cyane mu mpeshyi cyangwa ubukonje buke mu gihe cy'itumba. Iyo kabutura yahinduwe igaragaza ubudahangarwa bukomeye bwo guhangana n'umunaniro no kwangirika kw'amazi, bishobora kongera ubuzima rusange bw'imihanda ku kigero cya 30% kugeza kuri 50% ugereranije n'imihanda isanzwe ya kabutura. Igerageza rinini riherutse gukorwa mu mishinga yo gufunga imihanda yo mu cyaro mu turere twinshi ryagaragaje ko gushyiramo uduce twa kabutura nk'ibisimbura ikoreshwa ry'imivange karemano bitagabanya gusa ikoreshwa ry'imivange karemano ahubwo binagabanya neza ibyo imyuka ihumanya ikirere kandi bigakuraho ivumbi, bikazana inyungu zifatika kandi zifatika ku ngendo z'abaturage bo muri ako gace no ku buzima bwabo bwa buri munsi. Gutegura asphalt ya rubber bisaba kugenzura neza ubushyuhe bwo kuvanga, igihe cyo kuvanga, n'ibindi bintu by'ingenzi kugira ngo habeho gukwirakwira kw'uduce twa rubber muri matrix ya bitumen, bityo bikongera imikorere yabyo no kwirinda guhurirana kw'aho hantu bishobora kugira ingaruka ku bwiza bw'umuhanda.

Ibigo by'imikino n'imyidagaduro ni ikindi gice gikomeye kandi gikura vuba gikoreshwa mu gutera uduce twa rubber. Nk'ibikoresho by'ingenzi byo gushyiramo ibyatsi by'ubukorano, uduce twa rubber twuzuza icyuho kiri hagati y'uduce twa rubber, tugatanga ahantu horoshye, hashobora kwifata, kandi hadacika intege. Ibi ntibituma abakinnyi bakina neza mu gihe cy'imikino - bigabanya ibyago byo kugwa no gukomereka - ahubwo binatuma uburyo bwo gukina burushaho kuba bwiza binyuze mu kwigana imiterere y'ibyatsi karemano. Uduce twa rubber dufite amabara, dutunganywa no kongeramo amarangi arengera ibidukikije mu gihe cyo gukora kandi tuboneka mu mabara atandukanye meza nk'icyatsi kibisi, umutuku, ubururu n'umuhondo, dukoreshwa cyane mu kubaka inzira zo kwiruka, ibibuga by'umupira w'amaguru, ibibuga bya tenisi, n'ibibuga by'imikino by'abana. Uduce twa rubber dufite amabara ntabwo twujuje gusa ibisabwa mu bwiza no mu mikorere y'ahantu ho gukiniramo ariko kandi dufite imiterere myiza nko kwirinda kwangirika, kurinda imirasire y'izuba, kudacika umuriro, no kudahinduka kw'ikirere, bituma ibara n'imikorere y'ahantu ho gukiniramo biguma bihamye igihe kirekire. Uduce twa EPDM rubber, ubwoko bwihariye bw'uduce twa EPDM rubber dukora neza cyane, dukundwa cyane mu bigo by'imikino by'umwuga bitewe n'uko turwanya ogisijeni cyane, turwanya ozone, kandi tukagira ubushyuhe buke. Nubwo haba hari ibidukikije bikomeye nk'imirasire ikomeye ya ultraviolet, imvura nyinshi, n'ubushyuhe bwinshi, uduce twa EPDM rubber dushobora kugumana imiterere yabyo n'imikorere yabyo ihamye, bigatuma ibigo by'imikino biramba igihe kirekire.

Ikoranabuhanga mu gukora uduce duto twa rubber rikomeje gutera imbere no gutera imbere, aho gusya no gukonjesha mu bushyuhe buke ari bwo buryo bukoreshwa cyane mu nganda. Ikoranabuhanga ryo gusya, risanzwe rikubiyemo inzira nko gukata amapine, gutandukanya insinga z'icyuma, no gusya, rikoreshwa cyane bitewe n'uko rikuze kandi rigatwara amafaranga make mu gukora. Ariko, rishobora gutera gusaza igice cy'urubber bitewe n'ubushyuhe buterwa no gushwanyagurika buturuka mu gihe cyo gusya. Mu buryo bunyuranye, ikoranabuhanga ryo gusya mu bushyuhe buke rikoresha azote y'amazi kugira ngo ikonjeshe vuba urubber rw'imyanda kugeza rucitse, hanyuma rukarusya. Ubu buryo bugabanya gusaza kwa rubber mu gihe cyo gutunganya, bukora uduce dufite imiterere isanzwe, ingano imwe y'uduce, n'ubuso bugoye bushobora gufatana neza n'ibindi bikoresho. Nyuma yo gusya bwa mbere, inzira zikurikiraho zo gupima no gusuzuma, zikoresha utuyunguruzo twinshi tw'imigozi itandukanye, zishyira uduce duto twa rubber mu byiciro bitandukanye kugira ngo zihuze neza n'ibikenewe mu buryo butandukanye—urugero, uduce duto twa rubber dufite ingano iri munsi ya mm 1 tukwiriye guhindura asphalt, uduce duto twa mm 1-3 dukoreshwa mu byumba by'ibyatsi by'ubukorano, kandi uduce duto turi hejuru ya mm 3 dukoreshwa mu byumba byuzuza umuhanda no mu byuma bikurura umuyaga. Byongeye kandi, ikoranabuhanga ryo guhindura imiti nko gukoresha ubuso no guhindura imvange y’ibinyabutabire (grafting) rirushaho kongera ubushobozi bwo guhuza no gufatanya hagati y’uduce twa rubber na bitumen, ibikoresho bya polymer, n’ibindi bikoresho, binoza imikorere rusange y’ibikoresho bivanze kandi bikagura imbibi z’ikoreshwa rya duce twa rubber.

Isoko ry’ibice bya rubber ku isi ririmo kwiyongera kandi ku buryo buhoraho, bitewe n’ishoramari ry’ibikorwa remezo ku isi, kwaguka guhoraho k’ubwubatsi bw’imikino n’imyidagaduro, ndetse no kwiyongera k’umusaruro wo kongera gukoresha amapine y’imyanda. Amerika ya Ruguru n’Uburayi bikomeje kuba amasoko akomeye y’ibice bya rubber, bitewe n’uburyo bwabyo bwo kongera gukoresha imyanda, amategeko akaze agenga ibidukikije, ndetse no gukenera cyane ibikoresho by’imikino byiza. Muri utu turere, ikoreshwa ry’ibice bya rubber mu bwubatsi bw’imihanda n’ahantu ho gukorera imikino by’umwuga riri ku rwego rwo hejuru. Hagati aho, akarere ka Aziya na Pasifika kagaragaza iterambere rikomeye kandi ryihuse, riterwa inkunga n’iterambere ry’imijyi, kubaka imihanda minini, no kwiyongera kw’ibikorwa bya siporo mu bihugu bikiri mu nzira y’amajyambere nk’Ubushinwa, Ubuhinde, n’ibihugu byo muri Aziya y’Amajyepfo y’Amajyepfo. Abakinnyi bakomeye ku isoko ku isi mu nganda za rubber barimo kwibanda ku guhanga udushya mu ikoranabuhanga kugira ngo barusheho kunoza ireme ry’ibicuruzwa n’umusaruro, ndetse no kwagura ubushobozi kugira ngo hahuzwe n’izamuka ry’ibikenewe ku isoko. Ubufatanye mu nganda nabwo bwabaye ikintu cy’ingenzi—abatanga ibikoresho fatizo, ibigo bikora, n’ibigo bikoresha ibikoresho biri hasi barimo gushimangira ubufatanye kugira ngo barusheho kunoza uruhererekane rw’ibicuruzwa, bakemure ihindagurika ry’ibikoresho fatizo by’imyanda, kandi bahurize hamwe iterambere ryo gushyiraho no kuvugurura inganda za rubber.

Nubwo ikoreshwa ryazo rikwirakwira kandi rikaba rishobora kugaragara ku isoko, uduce twa rubber turacyahura n'imbogamizi zimwe na zimwe mu iterambere ry'inganda. Imwe mu mbogamizi zikomeye ni ukurwanya impumuro mbi mu gihe cyo gutunganya no gukoresha. Mu gihe cyo gukora uduce twa rubber, cyane cyane mu gutunganya ubushyuhe bwinshi, no mu gihe bikoreshwa mu bidukikije birimo ubushyuhe bwinshi nko ku muhanda wo mu mpeshyi cyangwa ahantu hakorerwa imikino, uduce twa rubber dushobora gusohora ibintu bihindagurika mu buryo bw'umwimerere, bigatera impumuro mbi zigira ingaruka ku buzima bw'umukoresha. Indi mbogamizi ikomeye ni ugukoresha neza ingano mu bivange bitandukanye. Igipimo cyiza cy'uduce twa rubber gitandukana cyane bitewe n'uburyo ikoreshwa—urugero, ingano mu guhindura asphalt itandukanye n'iyo mu byatsi by'ubukorano, kandi ingano irenze urugero cyangwa idahagije ishobora kugira ingaruka zikomeye ku mikorere y'ibicuruzwa bya nyuma, nko kugabanya imbaraga z'umuhanda cyangwa kugabanya ingaruka zo gushoka kw'ingufu. Ibi bisaba ubushakashatsi bwimbitse bukomeje no kugenzura byinshi kugira ngo hamenyekane ingano nyayo ikwiye ku buryo butandukanye bwo gukoresha. Byongeye kandi, gushyiraho amahame y'inganda n'uburyo bwo gupima biracyari akazi kihutirwa ku isi.
