EPDM rubber seals
EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) rubber seals are commonly used for their excellent sealing properties in various applications. Here's an overview of EPDM rubber seals: 1. **Material Composition:** - **EPDM Rubber:** EPDM is a synthetic rubber compound made from the polymerization of ethylene, propylene, and a diene monomer. The specific formulation can be adjusted to achieve desired properties. 2. **Key Properties of EPDM Rubber Seals:** - **Weather Resistance:** EPDM rubber is known for its exceptional resistance to weathering, UV radiation, and ozone exposure. This makes it suitable for outdoor applications where exposure to the elements is common. - **Temperature Resistance:** EPDM rubber maintains its flexibility and sealing properties over a wide temperature range, from very low temperatures to high temperatures. - **Chemical Resistance:** EPDM rubber exhibits good resistance to various chemicals, acids, and alkalis, making it suitable for applications wh
