ECO Rubber
Epichlorohydrin rubber (ECO) is the modern alternative for PVC/NBR
Greater heat resistance of up to 130°C at constant operating temperature
Benefits of ECO Rubber
Epichlorohydrin rubber (ECO) is the modern alternative for PVC/NBR with greater heat resistance of up to 130°C at constant operating temperature with the added advantages of improved ozone and acid resistance.
ECO has properties similar to nitrile rubber but with better heat, oil and petrol resistance. It has low gas permeability and better low temperature flexibility than NBR. It has excellent resistance to acids, alkalis and ozone.
However, it suffers from poor compression set and has a corrosive effect on metals which can increase tooling costs and limit metal bonding applications.
Typical uses are in automotive fuel systems with a typical working temperature range: -35°C to +125°C.
