ULTRA PURE DEIONIZED WATER Resistant O-Rings and Seals
Ultra Pure Deionized Water, also known as UPW or DI Water, is a type of purified water with a very low level of impurities. It is commonly used in the semiconductor and electronics industry, as well as in pharmaceutical, power generation, and food processing.
When rubber materials are exposed to Ultra Pure Deionized Water, the rubber can be susceptible to premature aging, which can lead to cracking, splitting, and shrinking. Additionally, the rubber can become softer, swell, and degrade over time, resulting in a decrease in the physical integrity and strength of the rubber seal. This can lead to a complete seal failure.
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.
