EPDM rubber seals
EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) rubber seals are commonly used in a variety of applications due to their excellent properties, including weather resistance, durability, and flexibility. Here are some key aspects of EPDM rubber seals: 1. **Weather Resistance:** - EPDM rubber is known for its outstanding weather resistance. It can withstand exposure to sunlight (UV rays), ozone, and extreme weather conditions without significant degradation. 2. **Temperature Resistance:** - EPDM rubber maintains its properties across a wide temperature range, from -40°C to 120°C (-40°F to 248°F). This makes it suitable for both hot and cold environments. 3. **Chemical Resistance:** - EPDM rubber exhibits good resistance to a variety of chemicals, acids, and alkalis. However, its resistance to oils and hydrocarbons is moderate compared to some other rubber materials. 4. **Flexibility and Elasticity:** - EPDM rubber is highly flexible and elastic, allowing it to conform to irregular
