IODIC ACID Resistant O-Rings and Seals
Iodic acid, also known as iodine oxyacid or periodate, is a common chemical used in a variety of industries including water treatment, agriculture, and food production. It is a strong oxidizing agent often used as a disinfectant, bleaching agent, and preservative.
When rubber materials are exposed to iodic acid, there is a risk of degradation resulting in a decrease in physical strength and elasticity. The rubber can become brittle and cracked, or may swell and become soft. In extreme cases, the rubber may become hard and form a crust on the surface. Additionally, long-term exposure to iodic acid can cause discoloration of the rubber material.
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.
