NBR – Butadiene-nitrile rubber

NBR – butadiene-nitrile rubber - copolymer of butadiene and acrylonitrile. NBR is considered standard material of epiploons. Material provides good resistance of an epiploon to oils, fuels, water, hydraulic liquids on an oil basis.

Properties

NBR possesses high hardness and for rubber elastomers rather high resistance to attrition (110 mm3). Temperature limit of application: from -30 °C to +100 °C (about +120 °C are short-term). At high temperatures aging at the expense of what material becomes firm and fragile is accelerated. It begins in the oxygen atmosphere (air) approximately at 80 °C, at air access overlapping process of aging is considerably slowed down (for example, in hot oil). This elastomer possesses low ozone resistance, to weather influence and aging (it is careful at storage). Swelling in mineral oils is very insignificant, however is in strong dependence on composition of oil.

Butadiene-nitrile rubberButadiene-nitrile rubber

NBR is widely used for production of epiploons, a conveyor tape thanks to low cost (in comparison with other basic polymers), to low swelling, good oil resistance and wear resistance. The greatest lack of a nitrile of weak resistance to the increased temperatures: material hardens, cracks, loses ability to trace a shaft beating. At low temperatures of NBR becomes inelastic, can collapse at rotation of a shaft.


The AvtokomTehnolodgy group of companies uses this material for production of various rubber products, proceeding from specifications of area of their application. Butadiene - nitrile rubber is applied at production of mechanical seals for pumps, such firms as Hilge, KSB, Grundfos, Packo, Ebara, Wilo, Tuchenhagen,
Alfa Laval, APV, Fristam, etc.
