Summary:

This unique, hands-on guide helps engineers, architects, and designers choose the best synthetic elastomer to meet specific industrial needs. Organized for quick, easy access to the material, Corrosion Resistance of Elastomers provides a separate chapter for each elastomer with detailed information on physical and mechanical properties ... suitable applications ... resistance to sun, weather, and ozone ... and chemical resistance. PLUS, this outstanding reference features a comprehensive table illustrating the compatability of each elastomer with more than 100 common corrosives. Saving readers time and money -- and sparing them the agony of correcting bad choices -- Corrosion Resistance of Elastomers is of immediate benefit to materials, chemical, mechanical, civil, metallurgical, packaging, product development, maintenance, and environmental engineers; architects; industrial and household product designers; and advanced undergraduate students in these disciplines.
