LITHIUM PERCHLORATE Resistant O-Rings and Seals
Lithium perchlorate is a chemical compound also known as lithium hexachlorooxalate, and is used in a variety of industries such as polymerization, petroleum refining, and rocket fuel production. It is also used as a catalyst in the production of plastics and other synthetic materials.
Rubber materials can be easily damaged or degraded when exposed to lithium perchlorate. The chemical can react with the rubber, causing it to swell and crack, resulting in a loss of elasticity and strength. In addition, the chemical can leach out plasticizers, reducing flexibility and increasing the potential for cracking. Exposure to lithium perchlorate can also cause rubber to break down more quickly due to increased brittleness, leading to premature failure.
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.
