EPDM rubber seals
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber seals are widely used for sealing applications due to their excellent properties. Here's a more detailed look at EPDM rubber seals: **1. Composition and Properties:** - **Material Composition:** EPDM is a synthetic rubber made from ethylene, propylene, and a diene monomer. The specific composition can be adjusted to achieve desired properties. - **Weather Resistance:** EPDM rubber is known for its exceptional resistance to weathering, UV radiation, and ozone exposure. This makes it suitable for outdoor applications. - **Temperature Resistance:** EPDM can withstand a wide range of temperatures, from -40°C to 130°C (-40°F to 266°F), without significant degradation. - **Chemical Resistance:** EPDM exhibits good resistance to various chemicals, acids, and alkalis, making it suitable for applications where exposure to different substances is likely. - **Water Resistance:** EPDM is impermeable to water and is commonly used in
