KEYSTONE #87HX0GREASE Resistant O-Rings and Seals
Kerosene is also known as paraffin, lamp oil, and coal oil. It is a commonly used fuel for jet engines, heating, and even some cars. Kerosene is also used as a solvent in various industries, including the production of synthetic rubber.
When rubber is exposed to kerosene, it can cause the rubber to swell and break down. This is due to the fact that kerosene is very hydrophobic, which means it will cause the rubber to dry out and crack over time. Additionally, if the kerosene is exposed to extreme temperatures, it can cause the rubber to become brittle and crack.
