Description

FVMQ offers excellent chemical resistance to dilute acids and alkalines, and non-polar fluids. they have high heat and oxidative stability, outstanding low temperature flexibility, and are resistant to heat, ozone and sunlight (UV). They also offer a similar wide operational temperature range, which is much wider than that of fluorocarbon rubbers.

This material data has been provided by M-Base.

"Typical" values were obtained via a literature search. "Predicted" values were imputed via artificial intelligence technology. While we have placed significant efforts in ensuring data accuracy, "typical" and "predicted" data should be considered indicative and verified by appropriate material testing. Please do contact us if additional information on the the predicted data method is required.
All metrics apply to room temperature unless otherwise stated. SI units used unless otherwise stated.
Equivalent standards are similar to one or more standards provided by the supplier. Some equivalent standards may be stricter whereas others may be outside the bounds of the original standard.
