Brucine sulfate, also known as Brucine Sulfate Hydrate, is a commonly used industrial chemical. It is used in the production of dyes, plastics, and rubber materials and is found in some pharmaceuticals. Common uses for brucine sulfate include as a stabilizer for dyes and as a catalyst in the production of plastics.
When rubber is exposed to brucine sulfate, it can cause a number of issues. Most commonly, rubber parts will experience cracking, discoloration and hardening. Additionally, exposure to brucine sulfate can cause rubber parts to become brittle and easily breakable. The rubber's structural integrity can become compromised, leading to failure of the rubber parts.
