EPDM rubber seals
EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) rubber seals are widely used for their excellent sealing properties in various applications. Here's a summary of key points: **Composition:** - EPDM is a synthetic rubber composed of ethylene, propylene, and a diene monomer. This composition gives EPDM its desirable properties, including flexibility and resistance to environmental factors. **Sealing Properties:** - **Weather Resistance:** EPDM rubber seals are highly resistant to weathering, UV radiation, and ozone exposure, making them suitable for outdoor applications. - **Temperature Resistance:** EPDM exhibits a broad temperature range from -40°C to 120°C (-40°F to 248°F), allowing for versatile use in both hot and cold environments. - **Chemical Resistance:** EPDM has good resistance to various chemicals, acids, and alkalis, making it suitable for applications where exposure to different substances is expected. - **Water and Steam Resistance:** EPDM rubber maintains its sealing propert...
