Sodium aluminate sulfate is also known as sodium aluminosulfate and is commonly used in water treatment and waste water treatment processes. It is also used in metal surface treatment, as a dyeing and printing aid, and in the production of some textiles.
When rubber is exposed to sodium aluminate sulfate, the material can become brittle and rigid due to the salt's corrosive properties. In addition, the rubber can become discolored and can cause a decrease in overall elasticity of the material. Over time, the rubber can become increasingly brittle and prone to cracking or breaking.
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.
