EPDM rubber seals
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber seals are commonly used for their excellent sealing properties in a variety of applications. Here are some key points about EPDM rubber seals: ### 1. Material Composition: - **Ethylene, Propylene, Diene Monomer (EPDM):** EPDM is a synthetic rubber compound formed by the polymerization of ethylene, propylene, and a diene monomer. This composition imparts specific characteristics suitable for various sealing applications. ### 2. Key Characteristics: #### a. **Weather Resistance:** - EPDM rubber seals are known for their exceptional resistance to weathering, making them suitable for outdoor applications. They can withstand exposure to sunlight, rain, and extreme temperatures. #### b. **Ozone Resistance:** - EPDM exhibits excellent resistance to ozone, a common environmental factor that can degrade some rubber materials. This makes EPDM ideal for outdoor use where exposure to ozone is prevalent. #### c. **Temperature Stability:**
