<\/span><\/div>Fluorocarbon rubber materials consist of various fluorine-containing hydrocarbons. They occur as copolymers, terpolymers and tetrapolymers with fluorine contents varying between 65% – 70%. Several different curing systems are used: amines, bisphenols and peroxides. <\/p>\n
The materials are highly stable and possess exceptional resistance to oxidation, weathering, fire, chemical attack and swelling in a very wide range of fluids. Used in critical applications where resistance to various fuels and chemicals at high temperatures is required. Can be used up to 200\u00b0C and for shorter periods up to 300\u00b0C. Used in O-rings, shaft seals, gaskets, fuel hoses, membranes and cable sheaths. Fluorocarbon rubber is quite expensive, approximately 30-40 times more expensive than Styrene-Butadiene Rubber (SBR). A common brand is VITON\u00ae manufactured by DuPont Tm.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":0,"parent":18926,"menu_order":1,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"100-width.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-19060","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uw-elast.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/19060","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uw-elast.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uw-elast.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uw-elast.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uw-elast.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19060"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.uw-elast.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/19060\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20919,"href":"https:\/\/www.uw-elast.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/19060\/revisions\/20919"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uw-elast.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/18926"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uw-elast.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19060"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
