While selecting the base rubber for any Rubber products, we first study the application and which are the basic properties are utmost important. Some of the basic properties are designed considering temperature range, fluid resistance, Weather, Ozone resistance etc

While selecting the most appropriate rubber for rubber products, bearing seals etc… the following data is needed:

• Highest and peak temperature
• Continuous temperature
• Lowest operational temperature?
• Contact fluids and with context to temperature?
• How long the fluid will come in contact and also if any accidental contact of hazardous chemicals etc…
• Environmental or weather (ozone) application
