CHLORINE, LIQUID Resistant O-Rings and Seals
Chlorine Liquid, also known as chlorine dioxide, is an oxidizing agent commonly used for bleach and disinfection purposes. It is also used in the production of paper products, pharmaceuticals, and water treatment.
Common types of rubber failure when exposed to chlorine liquid include accelerated degradation, swelling, and hardening. Chlorine liquid can cause rubber to become brittle and prone to cracking, as well as reducing its tensile strength and flexibility. Additionally, chlorine liquid can cause rubber components to degrade due to the oxidizing action, leading to further degradation of the rubber.
