TRIPOLY PHOSPHATE Resistant O-Rings and Seals
Tripolyphosphate (TPP) is also known as tetrasodium pyrophosphate (TSPP) and is used as a cleaning agent and water softener. TPP is commonly used in detergents, soaps, and specialty cleaners that are used to remove dirt and stains from surfaces.
When rubber is exposed to TPP, it can cause swelling and softening of the rubber, resulting in a decrease in its tensile strength, elongation, and hardness. In addition, the rubber can become brittle, making it more susceptible to cracking and failure. Long-term exposure to TPP can also lead to discoloration and a decrease in overall performance.
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.
