OZONATED DEIONIZED WATER Resistant O-Rings and Seals
OZONATED DEIONIZED WATER (ODW) is a type of water that has been infused with ozone gas. Ozone is a powerful oxidant, which means it is capable of breaking down organic material and disinfecting water. It is commonly used to treat wastewater, swimming pools, and drinking water. ODW can also be used to clean and sterilize equipment in industrial and medical settings.
When rubber is exposed to ODW, it can cause a variety of issues such as cracking, swelling, and discoloration. The ozone can cause oxidation of the rubber, which can make it brittle and susceptible to cracking. Swelling of the rubber can also occur due to the absorption of the ozone, creating a larger footprint than the original material. Lastly, exposure to ozone can cause discoloration to the rubber, making it appear foggy or gray in color.
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.
