Weathering/Life Prediction Tests

Tiny traces of ozone in the air will attack double bonds in rubber chains, with natural rubber, polybutadiene, styrene-butadiene rubber and nitrile rubber being most sensitive to degradation. Presence of double bond in molecular structure makes the elastomer vulnerable to ozone/oxygen attack.

We are providing different tools to estimate durability of end product.
