Rubber

Buna N, a copolymer of butadiene and acrylonitrile.

High tensile strength, as well as good tear and compression set resistance, very good aging properties under severe operating conditions.

Nitrile performs well in: Dilute acids, Ethylene glycol, Petroleum oils and fuels, Silicone oils and greases and Water (below 212° F)

Does not have good resistance to ozone, sunlight, or weathering, and should not be stored near ozone-generating electric motors or equipment.Nitrile does not perform well in: Aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene, toluene, xylene), automotive brake fluid, Halogen derivatives (carbon tetrachloride, trichloroethylene), Ketone (MEK, acetone), Phosphate ester hydraulic fluids (Skydrol®, Pydraul®) or Strong acids
