WINE Resistant O-Rings and Seals
Wine, also known as ethanol, is an alcoholic beverage made from fermented grapes. It is commonly used as an ingredient in cooking and baking, as well as for its medicinal and recreational purposes.
Common types of failures when rubber is exposed to wine are softening, swelling, and discoloration. Wine is composed of ethanol, which can soften and swell the rubber, making it more pliable. Additionally, wine is acidic, which can cause discoloration of the rubber due to chemical reactions. Long-term exposure to wine can also cause the rubber to become brittle and crack due to chemical degradation.
