Acrylic rubber is a type of synthetic rubber containing acrylonitrile. The
chemical name of this rubber is Alkyl acrylate copolymer. The outstanding
property of this rubber is its resistance to hot oil and to oxidation. These
Rubber is suitable for continuous use at temperatures up to 150 degree
celsius and at intermittent exposure up to about 180 degree celcius. It has
however poor resistance to water or moisture. ACM rubber is usually not
suitable for use much below -10 degree celsius and also has poor resistance
to acids and bases. Acrylic rubber is widely used in automotive
transmissions and hoses.| Durometer or Hardness Range Tensile Strength Range Elongation (Range %) Abrasion Resistance Adhesion to Metal Adhesion to Rigid Materials Compression Set Flex Cracking Resistance Impact Resistance Resilience/Rebound Tear Resistance Vibration Dampening |
