AMMONIUM MOLYBDENATE Resistant O-Rings and Seals
Ammonium molybdate is also known as molybdic acid ammonium salt, ammonium heptamolybdate, ammonium dimolybdate, and ammonium polymolybdate. It is a white crystalline salt and is used as an oxidizing agent, a catalyst, a corrosion inhibitor, and a flame retardant in various industrial processes such as petroleum refining, dyeing, and metal finishing.
When rubber is exposed to ammonium molybdate, it can cause hardening, embrittlement, and cracking due to the corrosive nature of the chemical. The acidity of the chemical can also cause swelling and softening of the rubber, which can lead to a loss of strength and elasticity. Additionally, the presence of ammonium molybdate can lead to discoloration, staining, and fading of the rubber material.
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.
