Various Rubber Specifications

SILICONE

Excellent heat and cold resistance. Limited in chemical resistance properties.

VITON

Good high temperature properties. Resistant to most hydrocarbons, acids and vegetable and animal oils. Poor for nitro containing compounds, low molecular esters and ketones.

NITRILE

Resistant to attack from petroleum based solvents and mineral oils. Fair heat and aging resistance. Poor cold resistance, not recommended for weather resistance.

CARBOXYLATED NITRILE

Similar to nitrile but provides a higher abrasion resistance due to tougher vulcanizates. Poor cold resistance, not recommended for weather resistance.

E.P.D.M.

Excellent resistance to Ozone and weather. Low temperature threshold. High tensile strength. Also resistant to non-flammable hydraulic fluids. Non-resistant to mineral oils.

NEOPRENE

Good resistance to heat and flame, aging and weather. Moderate in resistance to oil and chemicals. Long flex life. Poor resistance to aromatic hydrocarbons.

NATURAL RUBBER

Good low temperature properties and long flex life. High resilience, tensile strength and elongation. Wide hardness range. Poor resistance to heat, ozone, weather and oil.

HYPALON

Improved acid and ozone resistance over neoprene. High colour retention means it is good for certain bleaching agents. Poor resistance to esters and ketones, concentrated oxidising agents, chlorinated, aromatic and nitro hydrocarbons.
