EPDM rubber seals
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber seals are widely used for various sealing applications due to their versatile properties. Here's an overview: 1. **Material Composition:** - EPDM is a synthetic rubber compound derived from the polymerization of ethylene, propylene, and a diene monomer. - The specific formulation can be adjusted to achieve desired characteristics such as flexibility, hardness, and resistance to environmental factors. 2. **Key Properties:** - **Weather Resistance:** EPDM rubber is known for its excellent resistance to weathering, UV exposure, and ozone. It remains stable and durable in outdoor applications. - **Temperature Tolerance:** EPDM maintains its flexibility and properties across a wide temperature range, making it suitable for both hot and cold environments. - **Chemical Resistance:** EPDM has moderate resistance to chemicals, acids, and alkalis. However, it may not be suitable for applications involving prolonged exposure to o
