What this NAICS covers

NAICS 325212 covers manufacturing synthetic rubber polymers and compounds produced through chemical processes, including emulsion and solution polymerization of butadiene, styrene-butadiene, isoprene, nitrile, and specialty elastomer formulations.

Federal opportunities under 325212 typically involve production and delivery of specified elastomer grades and compounded rubber batches, providing certificates of analysis, meeting tensile and compression set specifications, performing batch QC testing, and managing shelf-life and lot traceability for procurement.

FAQ

What work fits NAICS 325212?
  • Produce bulk styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) to specified polymer properties and viscosity ranges, deliver with certificates of analysis and Mooney viscosity test results.
  • Compound nitrile rubber (NBR) batches to meet specified acrylonitrile content, hardness durometer, and elongation targets, supply in drums or totes with batch QC reports.
  • Formulate specialty elastomer blends for seal and o-ring stock with specified compression set and tensile properties, and provide lot traceability for downstream molding.
  • Blend reclaimed rubber with virgin polymers to meet specified recycled content and physical property targets, providing batch testing and documentation for acceptance.
When is NAICS 325212 a weak fit?
  • Rubber product molding and fabrication: producing finished rubber items such as tires, molded seals, or belts is converting compounded rubber into products and is outside this polymer-compounding scope.
  • Monomer or petrochemical feedstock production: manufacturing raw monomers like butadiene or styrene rather than polymerizing them into synthetic rubber falls outside this classification.
  • Independent laboratory testing services: providing only analytical or materials testing without producing rubber batches or compounds is not manufacturing under this NAICS.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 325212?
  • Line items specify elastomer grade and property targets such as Mooney viscosity, tensile strength, elongation, or acrylonitrile percentage and require a certificate of analysis for each lot.
  • Quality clauses require batch traceability, shelf-life labeling, and QC lab reports including tensile, elongation, hardness, and compression set results.
  • Deliverable packaging and handling details list drums or totes, MSDS, lot numbers, and required storage or transport temperature controls for compounded rubber shipments.
