What is FKM fluororubber?

Fluoro Rubber (Fluoro Rubber / FKM / FPM / Viton®) is a **fully synthetic polymer elastomer** with excellent **high temperature resistance, oil resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, fuel resistance and aging resistance**. FKM is widely used for sealing and protection in harsh environments, especially in environments in contact with petrochemical solvents, strong acids and alkalis, and fuel oil.

Semiconductor-specific perfluoroelastomer

1. High Fluorine FKM

High fluorine FKM is a fluorine rubber material with a fluorine content of 67 to 70% in the original rubber. Compared with the general grade, it provides better chemical resistance and high temperature stability.

Material properties:

*Extremely high corrosion resistance**: Resistant to strong acids, strong alkali, organic solvents, oxidants, etc.

*Excellent high temperature resistance**: It can withstand temperatures above 250°C for a long time.

*Good electrical insulation**: used in high-frequency equipment and power industry.

*Anti-pollution, low surface energy**: Not easy to absorb pollution sources and easy to clean.

Application industries:

*Petrochemical equipment sealing

*Sealing rings for high temperature chemical reactors

* Semiconductor wafer process peripherals

* Food grade equipment contact parts (need to comply with FDA)


2. Perfluoroelastomer/FFKM

Perfluoroelastomer FFKM original rubber contains more than 70% fluorine. It is one of the most chemically resistant rubber materials on the market and is suitable for use in extreme environments.

Material properties:

*Ultimate chemical resistance: can be exposed to various types of strong corrosive media for a long time.

*Ultra high heat resistance: thermal stability up to 300°C.

*Excellent electrical insulation and air tightness**: Suitable for high voltage and vacuum systems.

*Non-toxic, low pollution: very suitable for high-cleaning industries such as semiconductors and biomedicine.

Application industries:

* Semiconductor vacuum chamber sealing

* Sealing components for liquid crystal manufacturing equipment

* Biomedical grade suction/diversion O-ring

* High-end petrochemical plant reactor system
