TOLYLALDEHYDE, PARA Resistant O-Rings and Seals
Tolyaldehyde, para (also known as p-tolualdehyde) is an organic compound commonly used in the production of plastics, pharmaceuticals, perfumes, and dyes. It is also used as a preservative in foods and beverages and as a flavoring agent in the tobacco industry. Common types of failure when rubber is exposed to tolyaldehyde, para include cracking, hardening, discoloration, and swelling. These failures can be accelerated by exposure to heat, abrasion, and flexing. Additionally, exposure to tolyaldehyde, para can cause rubber to become brittle and to eventually crack or break.
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.
