CALCIUM SULFIDE Resistant O-Rings and Seals
Calcium sulfide, also known as celsian, is a chemical compound with the formula CaS. It is commonly used in the manufacturing of sulfuric acid and in the construction industry, for example in the production of cement.
When rubber is exposed to calcium sulfide, the sulfur molecules can lead to the rubber becoming brittle and cracked. Additionally, the rubber can become discolored and weakened, leading to a decrease in performance and durability. In extreme cases, the rubber may be completely destroyed. Rubber material can exhibit signs of damage such as swelling, cracking and discoloration, when exposed to calcium sulfide.
