SULFONYL CHORIDE Resistant O-Rings and Seals
Sulfonyl chloride, also known as sulfonyl dichloride, is a chemical compound used in the production of sulfonyl derivatives, dyes, and pharmaceuticals. It is also used in the textile industry as a bleaching and dyeing agent. In addition, it is used in many other industries such as metalworking, rubber, pesticides, and petrochemicals.
When rubber is exposed to sulfonyl chloride, it can suffer from swelling, hardening, embrittlement, softening, and discoloration. In extreme cases, rubber can be attacked and dissolved by this chemical. Additionally, sulfonyl chloride can degrade rubber by leaching out plasticizers, leading to a decrease in the rubber’s flexibility and strength. It can also cause changes in the rubber’s compound, leading to a decrease in the rubber’s performance and durability.
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.
