ESSO XP900EP Lubricant is also known as ESSO WS2812, and is a multi-purpose lubricant oil used in a variety of industries. It is often used as a lubricant for bearings and other moving parts, as well as for the protection of metals from corrosion and rust. It is also used in the automotive, aviation, and industrial sectors.
When rubber is exposed to ESSO XP900EP Lubricant, common types of failures can include swelling, hardening, and cracking of the rubber. This can be caused by the oil's high viscosity, which can cause the rubber to become brittle and unable to resist the force of the oil. Additionally, the oil can cause the rubber to become softer, leading to a decrease in durability and an increased risk of leaks. In extreme cases, the oil can cause the rubber to become brittle and crack, leading to a complete failure of the seal.
