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. **Material Composition:** - **EPDM:** EPDM is a synthetic rubber elastomer composed of ethylene, propylene, and a diene monomer. The specific formulation may vary, allowing for customization based on desired properties. ### 2. **Key Properties:** - **Weather Resistance:** EPDM is highly resistant to weathering, UV radiation, and ozone exposure. This makes it suitable for outdoor applications where exposure to the elements is a concern. - **Temperature Resistance:** EPDM remains flexible over a wide temperature range, from very low temperatures to high temperatures, without losing its elastic properties. - **Chemical Resistance:** EPDM exhibits good resistance to various chemicals, acids, and alkalis. - **Water Resistance:** EPDM is impermeable to water, making it an excellent choice
