Ethylene Propylene Diene Rubber (EPDM)
Ethylene Propylene Diene Rubber (EPDM) is a Terpolymer made from Ethylene, Propylene and Diene monomers.
Features:
– EPDM rubber is used for applications in which resistance to UV & ozone, weather-ability, temperature resistance, and sealing properties are key requirements. It also has excellent water and steam resistance.
– EPDM rubber provides superior properties excellent for use outdoors and high temperature applications.
Application:
- Automotive Weather strips
- Automotive & industrial hoses
- Electrical insulation
- Building profiles
- Rubber washers
