ACRYLONITRILE Resistant O-Rings and Seals

Acrylonitrile, also known as vinyl cyanide and cyanoethylene, is a colorless and volatile liquid with a pungent odor. It is used to manufacture a variety of products, including plastics, synthetic rubber, fibers, and coatings.

When rubber is exposed to acrylonitrile, the rubber may become brittle and crack due to the chemical's strong solvent properties. Additionally, the chemical's corrosive nature can cause the rubber to swell, leading to decreased mechanical properties and decreased resistance to wear and tear. The chemical can also lead to discoloration and deterioration of the rubber over time.


FFKM Perfluoroelastomer

Markez ® high performance perfluoroelastomer O-Rings (FFKM) offer unmatched value for demanding sealing applications. Produced from nearly identical ingredients as higher priced brands, Markez ® compounds are used for high temperature o-rings and high pressure o-rings and chemical resistant o-rings that deliver similar performance to major FFKM brands, with temperature resistance up to 625oF, at a significantly lower cost. Our proprietary processing allow us to supply seals under an inch in size more efficiently. Introduced exclusively to existing customers over 15 years ago, we now have the experience and capacity to offer Markez ® high temperature o-rings and high pressure o-rings to the world.
