Curing is a term in polymer chemistry and process engineering that refers to the toughening or hardening of a polymer material by cross-linking of polymer chains, brought about by electron beams, heat or chemical additives.esin curing [edit]. Despite the wide variety of thermoset resin formulations (epoxy, vinylester, polyester, etc.), their cure behavior is qualitatively identical.
The brake drum mounts on the axle or wheel hub, and some drums incorporate the hub. Most brake drums are made of solid cast iron, but there are also steel and aluminum drums with cast iron liners. The machined friction surface on all drums is cast iron.
The following brakes are types of friction brakes. In drum brakes the brake lining is adhered to the external surface of a curved bracket, called a shoe. The most common configuration includes two shoes mounted inside of a drum on a plate.
