Name: Hypalon - E.I. duPont de Nemours
The
ethylene monomer with some of the hydrogen replaced by chlorine
and sulphur groups is the main constituent of this elastomer.
It
is useful over a temperature range of -65 to +250 degrees F (-54
to +121 degrees C) but its mechanical properties, compression
and permanent set characteristics are less than is desired for
both dynamic and static sealing applications.
Chlorosulfonated
Polyethylene has good acid resistance.
