NBR – Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Caoutchouc

Elastomer on the base of acrylonitrile-butadiene-caoutchouc which is mainly used as budgetpriced sealing material (e. g. O-rings for stop-cocks). This material has a good resistance to mineral oils and fats as well as to HFA, HFB and HFC-hydraulic fluids. It has a very good elasticity. PERBUNAN® (its well-known trade name of BAYER AG) is not resistant to brake fluids on the basis of glycol, HFD liquids, aromatic compounds(e. g. benzol), ester, ketone and amines as well as in concentrated acids and caustic solutions. Due to its restricted chemical resistance, PERBUNAN® is not the ideal material for chemistry.
