NBR solid rubber oil-resistant

NBR rubber is produced from a copolymer of acrylonitrile and butadiene, which definitely stands out from other rubbers because of its excellent resistance to oils and fuels.

NBR rubber can be used in applications where temperatures are as low as -30 °C to +100 °C. Moreover, its physical properties include resistance to engine, fuel, and transformer oils as well as lubricants, hydraulic fluids, and aliphatic hydrocarbons. Consequently, it is suitable for applications in propane, butane, and gasoline. It also has excellent stability against alcohols, aqueous salt solutions, and diluted acids and alkalis at room temperature. Some types of NBR rubber can withstand temperatures of water up to 60 °C.

Properties of NBR rubber:

•     low resistance to atmospheric conditions and ozone – the exception is a nitrile rubber/PVC blend,
•    high resistance to mechanical damage,
•    resistance to temperatures between -50°C and 105°C,
•    resistance to oils and gasoline,
•    resistance to aliphatic hydrocarbons,
•    stability against light fuel oils and diesel fuels,
•    high resistance to fire-resistant hydraulic fluids,
•    does not react with dilute acids and alkalis (at low temperatures),
•    lack of resistance to brake fluids containing glycols.
