RTP 2800 Series Olefinic Thermoplastic Elastomer Compounds
Advantages
Moderately low cost
Good chemical and oil resistance
Compression set resistance
Limitations
Moderate heat resistance
Do not accept large amounts of fillers
The olefinic elastomers are a good compromise between price and performance. They have good chemical resistance against water, acids and bases.
When exposed to hydrocarbons such as fuel and oil, they will have good property retention but experience swelling. Service temperature is from -60 to 275 degrees F (-51 to 99 degrees C). Hardness ranges from 35 Shore A to 50 Shore D.
