EPDM Rubber Seals
EPDM, or Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer, is a synthetic rubber commonly used in various applications, including seals. EPDM rubber seals are known for their excellent weather resistance, UV resistance, and resistance to ozone and other environmental elements. Here are some key characteristics and applications of EPDM rubber seals: 1. **Weather Resistance:** EPDM rubber is highly resistant to weathering, making it suitable for outdoor applications. It can withstand exposure to sunlight, rain, and temperature extremes without significant degradation. 2. **Temperature Resistance:** EPDM rubber exhibits good heat resistance, allowing it to maintain its properties at both high and low temperatures. This makes it suitable for use in a wide range of climates. 3. **Chemical Resistance:** EPDM rubber has good resistance to a variety of chemicals, including acids and alkalis. However, its resistance to oils and hydrocarbons is generally lower compared to some other rubber materials. 4. **S
