Butylamine, also known as n-butylamine, is a common chemical used as a building block in many industries, including pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and adhesives. It is also used as a solvent and a fuel additive.
When rubber materials come into contact with butylamine, it can cause a variety of issues such as swelling, softening, and cracking of the rubber material. Additionally, the rubber material may become brittle and susceptible to failure due to the chemical reaction between the butylamine and the rubber material.
HNBR, or hydrogenated NBR, is created by modifying the properties of NBR to increase the materials resistance to ozone, many chemicals, heat, aging, and abrasion. Like NBR, HNBR still holds onto its resistance to oils and fuels.
