AMMONIUM PERCHLORATE Resistant O-Rings and Seals
AMMONIUM PERCHLORATE is also known as ammonium perchlorate and is an inorganic salt that is used primarily as a propellant in rocket engines, fireworks, and explosives. It is also used in some rocket fuel mixtures, in some pyrotechnic devices, and in certain industrial applications.
When rubber is exposed to ammonium perchlorate it can cause the rubber to swell, crack, degrade, or discolor. The rubber may become brittle over time and may even become gummy, making it difficult to handle. Additionally, there may be an increase in permeability, which can lead to the breakdown of the rubber.
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.
