Dynamic Properties of “Viton” Fluoroelastomer Vulcanizates 740990

This paper presents an experimental study of the effect of air oven aging on the dynamic properties of “Viton”* fluoroelastomer. These results are compared to other elastomers, where published formulations have been available. Some results on the fatigue characteristics of “Viton” are presented. Dynamic properties are presented for a range of typical “Viton” formulations. The data suggest that “Viton” is a material of choice for dynamic applications at elevated temperatures.
