SODIUM HYPOCHLORITE Resistant O-Rings and Seals
Sodium hypochlorite, also known as bleach, is most commonly used as a disinfectant and whitening agent in household and industrial applications. It is also used in the production of textiles, paper, and drinking water. Common types of failure when rubber is exposed to sodium hypochlorite include swelling, hardening, and cracking, as well as discoloration, corrosion, and loss of flexibility. In severe cases, the rubber may be completely degraded when exposed to the chemical.
