Sealing properties of fluorine rubber

Fluorine rubber is a kind of special rubber with high performance. It is widely used in various sealing occasions because of its excellent high temperature resistance, chemical corrosion resistance and oil resistance. The sealing properties of fluororubber will be introduced in detail in this paper.

 

First, the sealing performance characteristics of fluorine rubber

 

1. Excellent high temperature resistance: fluorine rubber has very high temperature resistance and can maintain stable sealing performance in high temperature environment. At high temperatures, fluorine rubber will not soften, deform or crack, and can effectively prevent the leakage of gas, liquid and other media.

 

2. Good chemical corrosion resistance: fluorine rubber has excellent corrosion resistance to most chemicals and solvents, and can resist the erosion of acids, alkalis, oils and other substances. In the chemical environment, fluorine rubber can maintain stable sealing performance and effectively prevent the leakage of chemical media.

 

3. Good compression permanent deformation performance: fluorine rubber has good recovery performance when used in the compressed state, and can maintain a stable sealing state. Even in the process of long-term use, the compression permanent deformation of fluorine rubber is small, which can maintain the stability of the sealing performance.

 

4. Good wear resistance: fluorine rubber has excellent wear resistance and can resist friction and wear. In the friction environment, fluorine rubber can maintain stable sealing performance and effectively prevent leakage.

 

Second, the factors affecting the sealing performance of fluorine rubber

 

1. Temperature: Temperature has a great impact on the sealing performance of fluoro rubber. In high temperature environment, fluorine rubber is easy to soften, resulting in reduced sealing performance. Therefore, in the process of use, it is necessary to pay attention to control the temperature to avoid being in a high temperature state for a long time.

 

2. Pressure: Pressure also has an impact on the sealing performance of fluorine rubber. Under the action of high pressure, fluorine rubber is prone to deformation, resulting in a decline in sealing performance. Therefore, in the process of use, it is necessary to choose the appropriate seal to maintain its stable performance.

 

3. Chemical medium: chemical medium has a greater impact on the sealing performance of fluororubber. Some chemical media will react with fluorine rubber, causing its performance to decline. Therefore, in the process of use, it is necessary to choose the appropriate fluorine rubber material to maintain its stable performance.

 

Third, fluorine rubber sealing performance of the application field

 

1. High temperature steam pipeline: In high temperature steam pipeline, the use of fluororubber-made seals can effectively prevent steam leakage.

 

2. Chemical reactor: In the chemical reactor, the use of fluororubber seals can effectively prevent chemical leakage.

 

3. Oil and gas fields and refineries: In oil and gas fields and refineries, the use of fluororubber seals can effectively prevent oil leakage.

 

4. Aerospace field: In the aerospace field, the use of fluororubber seals can effectively prevent gas leakage in the cabin.

 

In short, fluorine rubber is widely used in various sealing applications because of its excellent high temperature resistance, chemical corrosion resistance and oil resistance. In the process of use, it is necessary to pay attention to the influence of temperature, pressure, chemical media and other factors on the performance of fluorine rubber seal, and take appropriate measures to maintain its performance stability. At the same time, with the continuous progress and innovation of science and technology, the sealing performance and application fields of fluorine rubber will continue to expand and innovate.
