The Key Benefits of CSM / Hypalon® in Industrial Applications
When it comes to high-performance rubber materials, CSM (Chlorosulfonated Polyethylene Rubber), commonly known by its former brand name Hypalon®, stands out as an industry favorite. Known for its exceptional chemical resistance, weatherability, and thermal stability, CSM/Hypalon® is a go-to material for demanding industrial applications. But what makes it such a superior choice? Let’s explore its key advantages.
- Outstanding Chemical Resistance
CSM/Hypalon® is highly resistant to chemicals, including acids, alkalis, oils, and fuels, making it ideal for use in harsh industrial environments. Its chemical stability ensures long-term performance in applications such as chemical processing, tank linings, and protective coatings.
- Exceptional Weather and UV Resistance
One of the standout properties of CSM/Hypalon® is its superior resistance to UV radiation, ozone, and extreme weather conditions. This makes it an excellent choice for outdoor applications, including roofing membranes, inflatable structures, and marine products, where exposure to sunlight and environmental elements is a concern.
- Superior Thermal Stability
With excellent heat resistance up to 150°C (302°F), CSM/Hypalon® retains its mechanical properties even under extreme temperature conditions. Its low-temperature flexibility also ensures reliable performance in cold environments, making it a preferred material for industrial hoses, seals, and gaskets.
- High Durability and Mechanical Strength
CSM/Hypalon® offers outstanding abrasion resistance, tear strength, and flexibility, contributing to its long service life. Its toughness makes it ideal for automotive, aerospace, and heavy-duty industrial applications, where durability is essential.
- Resistance to Water and Solvents
Unlike many other rubber materials, CSM/Hypalon® exhibits low permeability to water and various solvents, making it an excellent choice for waterproof coatings, marine applications, and protective barriers.
Applications of CSM / Hypalon®
Due to its robust properties, CSM/Hypalon® is widely used in various industries, including:
- Chemical and industrial processing – Protective coatings, tank linings, hoses
- Marine and outdoor equipment – Boat covers, inflatable structures, roofing membranes
- Automotive and aerospace – Fuel hoses, gaskets, seals
- Electrical insulation – Protective sheathing for cables and wires
