Rubber sealing material - a brief introduction to fluororubber

rubber seals

For rubber sealing materials, fluororubber is one of the most important materials. It has excellent resistance to high temperature, chemical corrosion and compression deformation, and is widely used in various industrial fields. Below we will give a brief introduction to fluororubber to help everyone better understand its characteristics and uses.

First, Viton is a material made from fluorinated carbon polymers. Due to the strong electronegativity of fluorine atoms, fluorine rubber has excellent chemical corrosion resistance. It can be used stably for a long time in various acid and alkali solutions, organic matter and oxidant environments without corrosion, hardening or deterioration. Therefore, fluorine rubber is often used in chemical, pharmaceutical, food and other industries to ensure the normal operation of equipment and product quality.

Secondly, fluororubber has excellent high temperature resistance. It can maintain good elasticity and dimensional stability over a wide temperature range and will not cause aging or deformation due to temperature changes. Generally speaking, the service temperature of fluorine rubber can reach -20℃ to +200℃, and under some special working conditions, it can even withstand higher temperatures. Therefore, fluorine rubber is widely used in aerospace, electronic appliances, automobiles and other fields to ensure the normal operation and efficiency of equipment.

In addition to chemical and high-temperature resistance, fluoroelastomers also have good oil and solvent resistance. It can be used for a long time in oil and solvent environments without being corroded or dissolved. This characteristic makes fluorine rubber widely used in automobiles, mechanical equipment and other fields, such as sealing rings, O-rings, etc.

Furthermore, fluororubber also has good air tightness and corrosion resistance. It can effectively prevent the leakage of gas and liquid and play the role of sealing and isolation. At the same time, due to its excellent resistance to chemical corrosion, fluororubber can reduce the risk of corrosion of mechanical equipment in harsh environments and extend its service life.

To sum up, fluorine rubber, as a type of rubber sealing material, has the characteristics of high temperature resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, oil solvent resistance, good air tightness and corrosion resistance. Its wide application brings convenience and economic benefits to various industrial fields. In future development, fluororubber will further improve its performance and application scope to meet the needs of more fields.
