EPDM rubber seals
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber seals are commonly used in various industries for sealing applications due to their unique combination of properties. Here are some key aspects of EPDM rubber seals: 1. **Material Composition:** - EPDM is a type of synthetic rubber made from the polymerization of ethylene, propylene, and a diene monomer. - The presence of the diene monomer in the polymer chain provides the rubber with unsaturation, contributing to its flexibility and elasticity. 2. **Key Properties:** - **Weather Resistance:** EPDM rubber is known for its exceptional resistance to weathering, ozone, and UV exposure. This makes it suitable for outdoor applications where exposure to the elements is a concern. - **Temperature Resistance:** EPDM maintains its flexibility and elasticity over a wide temperature range, from very low temperatures to high temperatures, making it suitable for diverse climates. - **Chemical Resistance:** EPDM exhibits good resistance
