PROPYLENE IMINE Resistant O-Rings and Seals
Propylene imine, also known as 1-methyl-2-iminopropane, is an organic compound mainly used for the production of polymers and resins. It is also used as a raw material for the production of pharmaceuticals, dyes, and pesticides.
When rubber is exposed to propylene imine, it can cause swelling, cracking, and embrittlement. The chemical can also cause rubber to become brittle and harden, resulting in a decrease in flexibility and an increase in brittleness. Additionally, oxidation and discoloration of rubber can occur, leading to reduced physical and mechanical properties.
