SODIUM BICHROMATE Resistant O-Rings and Seals
Sodium Bichromate, also known as sodium chromate, is a salt containing sodium, chromium, and oxygen atoms. It is commonly used as a wood preservative, tanning agent, and corrosion inhibitor. When rubber is exposed to sodium bichromate, it can cause the rubber to become brittle and weakened due to oxidation. This can lead to cracking and breaking of the rubber, as well as discoloration. In addition, the rubber may become more susceptible to environmental factors such as water and temperature.
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.
