MIL0F081912 Resistant O-Rings and Seals
MIL-0F081912, also known as Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK), is a common, volatile, organic solvent used for paint thinning, cleaning and degreasing operations. It is also used as a solvent in pharmaceuticals, dyes, and in the production of many other chemicals. Common types of failures when rubber is exposed to MEK include swelling, cracking and embrittlement. As MEK is a strong solvent, it can cause rubber to lose its flexibility and become brittle. It also has a tendency to penetrate rubber seals and gaskets, causing them to become distorted and/or leak.
