SILICONE

FKM/FPM FLUOROELASTOMERS Chemical name Abbreviation FKM

Physical properties

Fluorocarbons usually have good compression set resistance, low gas permeability, and resistance to ozone and sunlight. Over the last five decades, this remarkable combination of properties has prompted the use of FKM seals in a variety of demanding sectors. Though they were initially formulated for use in aerospace applications, FKM compounds are now widely used in the automotive, appliance, fluid power, and chemical processing industries.
