O-ring material selection
O-ring material selection mainly consider the following points: 1) O-ring working condition refers to the O-ring for static sealing, dynamic sealing or sliding sealing. 2) The working condition of the machine refers to the machine in continuous work or intermittent work, and consider the length of each intermittent time, whether there is shock load in the sealing part. 3) the working medium of the working media is a gas or a liquid and consider the physical and chemical properties. 4) the working pressure pressure, fluctuations and frequency, as well as the maximum instantaneous pressure. 5) the working temperature, including the instantaneous temperature and hot and cold alternating temperatures. 4)Working pressure pressure, fluctuation amplitude and frequency, and instantaneous maximum pressure, etc. 5)Working temperature, including instantaneous temperature and hot and cold alternating temperature. 6)Price and source.
Generally speaking, oil-resistant nitrile rubber, weather- and ozone-resistant neoprene rubber, heat-resistant acrylate rubber or fluoroelastomer, high-pressure and abrasion-resistant urethane rubber, and cold-resistant and at the same time oil-resistant copolymerised chlorohydrin rubber are used.
The scope of application of various rubber materials is detailed in the following table:
