Butyl (IIR)
Butyl rubber (isobutylene-isoprene rubber or IIR) has a very low permeability rate and good.
Chloroprene (CR)
Also known by the tradename Neoprene®, polychloroprene was the first synthetic rubber.
Ethylene Acrylic
Ethylene acrylate is a mixed polymer of ethylene, methyl acrylate and a small amount.
(EPDM)
EPM (EPR) is a copolymer of ethylene and propylene. EPDM is a terpolymer of ethylene, propylene.
Fluorocarbon (FKM)
Fluorocarbon (FKM) has excellent resistance to high temperature and a broad range of chemicals.
(FVMQ)
Fluorosilicone is a silicone polymer chains with fluorinated side-chains for improved oil and fuel
Hydrogenated Nitrile
Hydrogenated nitrile was developed as an air-resistant variant of nitrile rubber.
Perfluoroelastomer
Perfluoroelastomer is a rubber version of PTFE. Available from Parker under the tradenames.
Polyacrylate (ACM)
ACM (acrylic rubber) has good resistance to mineral oil, oxygen and ozone.
POLYURETHANE (AU, EU)
Polyurethane elastomers have excellent wear resistance, high tensile strength and high elasticity.
Silicone (VMQ)
Silicones possess good insulating properties and tends to be physiologically neutral.
PTFE
PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) has outstanding chemical resistance, a very low coefficient of friction, and excellent thermal stability.
