EPDM rubber seals
EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) rubber seals are widely used for their excellent properties in sealing applications. Here are some key aspects of EPDM rubber seals: 1. **Material Composition:** - EPDM is a type of synthetic rubber derived from the polymerization of ethylene, propylene, and a diene monomer. This composition gives EPDM its unique characteristics. 2. **Weather Resistance:** - EPDM rubber is highly resistant to weathering, ozone, and ultraviolet (UV) radiation. This makes it suitable for outdoor applications where exposure to sunlight and environmental elements is a concern. 3. **Temperature Range:** - EPDM rubber exhibits good thermal stability and can withstand a wide range of temperatures, making it suitable for use in both hot and cold environments. The typical temperature range is from -40°C to 120°C (-40°F to 248°F). 4. **Chemical Resistance:** - EPDM rubber has good resistance to a variety of chemicals, including acids and alkalis. This prope
