POTASSIUM OXALATE Resistant O-Rings and Seals
Potassium oxalate is also known as potassium ethanedioate. It is commonly used in laboratories as a reagent, in photography, and in the production of calcium oxalate. It is a colorless, odorless, crystalline solid.
When rubber is exposed to potassium oxalate, it can cause swelling and brittleness of the rubber, leading to cracking and eventual failure. Additionally, the chemical can cause oxidation of the rubber, leading to a decrease in strength and flexibility and ultimately degradation of the 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.
