ACETOACETIC ACID Resistant O-Rings and Seals

Acetoacetic acid, also known as ethacetic acid, is a colorless liquid commonly used as a flavoring agent, a food preservative, and a reagent in organic synthesis. It is also used in the manufacture of dyes, pesticides, and other chemicals. Common industrial uses for acetoacetic acid include the production of pharmaceuticals and polymers.

When rubber is exposed to acetoacetic acid, it can cause swelling and softening of the material. The rubber may also become brittle and develop cracks or tears. If the rubber is exposed to acetoacetic acid for extended periods of time, it can lead to a complete breakdown in the rubber’s structure, leading to potential failure.


Fluorosilicone (FVMQ, FSIL)

Fluorosilicone o-rings are a hybrid of silicone and FKM resulting in great jet fuel resistance with high and low temperature performance. Also widely used in semiconductor Ashing equipment with strong resistance to oxygen plasma, FVMQ fluorosilicone o-rings also feature excellent flexibility, compression resistance, aging and sunlight resistance, and overall wide range of basic chemical resistance.
