Rubber EPDM

Rubber EPDM consists of ethylene and propylene copolymers that develop long saturated molecular chains that make the compound suitable for contact with many fluids of a different nature.

By adding a third monomer, Diene Monomer, to the compound, EPDM rubber is obtained that has shorter molecular chains than the saturated rubber; this adds to the characteristics of the starting copolymer a good resistance to radiation.

EPDM rubber stretches up to 300% and can be stretched in all directions at the same time (multiaxial response) and is not subject to breakage under tension.
