Viton Chemical Compatibility

 

Viton® Chemical Compatibility Chart: Check the chemical compatibility of Viton® with various chemicals, solvents, alcohols and other products.

A trademark of DuPont, Viton fluoroelastomer in general has a high temperature tolerance and chemical resistance rating. It is a synthetic rubber that resists many hydrocarbons, biodiesel, and petro chemicals, but is NOT compatible with ketones. Do not use Viton with acetone, esters, amines, organic acids, acetic acid, MEK, ethyl acetate, highly polar chemicals, etc.

The following information is available from DuPont:

Heat

Viton withstands high temperature better than most other elastomers, and retains its good mechanical properties. Oil and chemical resistance are also essentially unaffected by elevated temperatures. Compounds of Viton remain substantially elastic indefinitely when exposed to laboratory air oven aging up to 204°C or to intermittent exposures up to 316°C. High temperature service limits are generally considered to be:

  • 3,000 hr at 232°C
  • 1,000 hr at 260°C
  • 240 hr at 288°C
  • 48 hr at 316°C

Cold

Viton is generally serviceable in dynamic applications to temperatures of -18 to -23 °C. Special formulations permit its use in static applications down to -54°C. Also, Viton has proven to be satisfactory for static seals used under conditions approaching absolute zero. Viton is characterized by its:

  • Resistance to degradation by a greater variety of fluids and chemicals than any nonfluorinated elastomer.
  • Excellent resistance to oils, fuels, lubricants, and most mineral acids.
  • Extremely low permeability to a broad range of substances, including oxygenated automotive fuels.
  • Resistance to aliphatic, aromatic hydrocarbons that dissolve other rubbers.
  • Exceptionally good resistance to compression set, even at high temperatures.
  • Exceptionally good resistance to atmospheric oxidation, sun, and weather.
  • Excellent resistance to fungus and mold.
  • Good electrical properties in low voltage, low frequency applications.
  • Low burning characteristics; inherently more resistant to burning than other, non-fluorinated hydrocarbon rubbers.
