EPDM Rubber Seals
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber seals are versatile elastomeric seals widely used in various industries for their excellent properties. Here are some key aspects of EPDM rubber seals: 1. **Composition:** EPDM is a synthetic rubber made from the polymerization of ethylene, propylene, and a diene monomer. The resulting material exhibits a good balance of properties, including flexibility, resilience, and durability. 2. **Properties:** - **Weather Resistance:** EPDM seals are known for their outstanding resistance to weathering, UV radiation, and ozone exposure. This makes them suitable for outdoor applications where exposure to the elements is a concern. - **Temperature Resistance:** EPDM rubber can withstand a wide range of temperatures, from -40°C to 150°C (-40°F to 302°F), making it suitable for both hot and cold environments. - **Chemical Resistance:** EPDM has good resistance to various chemicals, acids, and alkalis, enhancing its performance in different i
