SODIUM BITARTRATE Resistant O-Rings and Seals
Sodium Bitartrate, also known as Tartaric Acid and Cream of Tartar, is an organic compound most commonly used as a food additive, nutritional supplement, and acidity regulator. It is widely used in baking, pharmaceutical, and winemaking industries.
When rubber is exposed to Sodium Bitartrate, the rubber can become brittle and degrade over time. This can lead to failure of the rubber seal, resulting in leaks and breaks. Additionally, the rubber material may become discolored or swell up when exposed to Sodium Bitartrate, both of which can cause the seal to be ineffective.
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.
