EPDMkummi

EPDMkummi is a synthetic rubber known for its excellent resistance to weathering, ozone, and UV radiation. Its full name is Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer rubber. This material is a terpolymer, meaning it is composed of three different monomers: ethylene, propylene, and a diene. The diene component is crucial as it allows for efficient vulcanization, a process that improves the rubber's strength and elasticity.

EPDMkummi's remarkable durability makes it a preferred choice for a wide range of applications, particularly in outdoor environments where it is exposed to the elements. Common uses include roofing membranes, automotive hoses and seals, window and door gaskets, and electrical insulation. Its resistance to high temperatures, steam, and various chemicals further expands its utility. The material's flexibility, even at low temperatures, is another significant advantage. EPDMkummi is also known for its good electrical insulating properties and is often used in applications where electrical safety is a concern. It is typically produced through polymerization processes and can be compounded with various additives to achieve specific performance characteristics.
