Butyl
A copolymer of isobutylene and a small amount of isoprene,Butyl has largely been replaced by propylene since its introduction.
Key Use:
Highly effective in Vacuum sealing applications. Good seal for hydraulic systems.
Working Temperature Range: - 40 °F to + 250 °F. (Dry Heat Only.)
Features:
- With outstanding low permeability to gases, Butyl is especially effective in vacuums sealing applications. It also features good to excellent resistance to ozone and sunlight aging.
- Butyl further features excellent shock dampening capabilities.
- Only slightly affected by oxygenated solvents and other polar liquids, Butyl is often Utilize in seal for hydraulic systems using synthetic fluids.
