Which rubber material has the longest service life?


The question of which rubber material has the longest service life depends on a variety of factors, including the type of rubber, the use environment, storage conditions and the stress it is subjected to. However, according to the available information and common applications, several rubber materials with relatively long service life can be summarized:

 

Fluorine rubber:

Characteristics: is a high temperature material, stability and corrosion resistance is very good, can withstand up to 300high temperature environment, generally used for the production of chemical equipment and high temperature pipelines.

Service life: the service life of PTFE fluorine rubber can reach more than 25 years.

 

Nitrile rubber:

Features: With good oil properties, wear resistance and cold resistance, can be used to make a variety of seals, jackets and resistant tubing.

Service life: under special circumstances, the service life of nitrile rubber can reach more than 30 years.

 

Polyurethane rubber:

Features: With excellent temperature and corrosion resistance, it is commonly used to make seals and pipes.

Service life: Due to the particularity of its material structure and physical properties, the service life of polyurethane rubber can reach more than 20 years.

 

In addition, there are some other rubber materials such as natural rubber, styrene butadiene rubber, butadiene rubber, isoamyl rubber, neoprene rubber, butyl rubber, hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber, ethylene propylene rubber, silicone rubber, etc., which also show good service life in different fields and under specific conditions. However, the service life of these rubbers is usually affected by a variety of factors, so it is impossible to generalize which rubber has the absolute longest service life.

 

In order to extend the service life of rubber, FOREVER SEALS needs to pay attention to the correct storage environment and conditions of use in addition to choosing the right rubber material. For example, rubber should be stored in a dry, cool, ventilated place, avoid direct sunlight and high temperature, high humidity environment. During use, excessive tensile force, long-term use in a high temperature environment and contact with acid and alkali substances should be avoided.
