DEXTRO LACTIC ACID Resistant O-Rings and Seals
Dextrin is also known as dextro Lactic acid and is a sugar derived from starch. It is used in a variety of industries such as pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food, beverages, and paper. Common uses of dextrin include thickening, binding, and stabilizing agents in the food industry, and as a skin conditioner in the cosmetics industry.
When rubber is exposed to dextrin, it can cause swelling and softening of the rubber material. This can potentially lead to cracking and ultimate failure of the rubber seal, especially if exposed to high temperatures. Additionally, the rubber can become brittle and rigid, resulting in decreased flexibility and an increased risk of cracking.
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.
