• Sorting out static seals
  cross-section seals (sometimes referred to as lathe-cut seals) often make them the better choice for static sealing the face of a gasket. Sealing fundamentals. Creating a face seal is not terribly complicated. In most sealing systems, the objective is to prevent fluid from leaking from high to low-pressure...
• Relating material tests to Seal Performance
  of identical composition. Geometry plays a role, too. Standard 1/2-in.-thick solid "buttons" of material exhibit slightly better compression set than 0.075-in.-thick discs stacked to the same height. Small O-rings (0.070-in. cross section) of the same material have even higher compression-set values...

• Seven Versatile Sealing Materials
  These polymers are the materials of choice for most seals and gaskets. Parts molded from natural rubber, EPDM, and SBR handle a range of automotive applications. Extruded and molded polymer parts handle a wide range of sealing applications. Designing the right seal involves several key criteria...
• K 2004: Oktoberfest of polymers
  Innovations highlight world's largest plastics fair. Engineering thermoplastic vulcanates (ETPV) from DuPont combine characteristics of cross-linked rubbers and thermoplastic elastomers. The new material resists oil and grease over a wide temperature range, making it suitable for automotive...
