How to properly store the rubber and plastic parts of the seal 2016-12-28

The physical and mechanical properties of the rubber and plastic parts may change during storage of the seal. These changes are made up of oxygen, ozone, sunlight, high temperature, ultraviolet light, temperature, dust and inappropriate chemical substances. If the seal is stored in a good environment, the quality of the rubber and plastic parts of the seal will be sustainable.

1、Environment, temperature and temperature

The optimum temperature for storing the seal is 5 to 25 ° C and the humidity is not higher than 60%. Although the low temperature does not change the physical and technical characteristics of the seal, it is advisable to store the seal at 20 to 25 ° C Environment for some time. In addition, we also recommend that the place where the seal should be stored should leave the heat source, such as the temperature regulator, heat sink, stove and so on.

2、dust

Factor dust may affect the mechanical properties of the product, so the installation of seals should be completely removed before the dust;

3、Light, ultraviolet

It is advisable to store or wrap the rubber or plastic seal with an opaque box or bag and enclose the window of the room in which the seal is to be covered with red or orange so that the seal is protected from direct sunlight, strong light, ultraviolet light and fluorescent light.

4、Oxygen, Ozone

Oxygen and ozone in the air are oxidized media, so the application of synthetic resin bags and sealed storage of seals. Storage of sealed rooms, can not be installed high-voltage electrical equipment, electric engines will produce ozone items, due to ozone seals rubber or plastic damage is particularly serious.

5、Deformation

In order to avoid deformation of the seal, rubber and plastic seals should not be stored in a tensile or load-bearing state. Rally will speed up the mechanical properties of the seal and accelerate the aging phenomenon.

6、Contact with solution or oil

The seal should not be stored in other solutions, oil or any semi-solid material before the supplier's engineers are not consulted.

7、Contact with metal

Certain metals, such as manganese and copper, can cause damage to different types of rubber, so when storing rubber and plastic seals, they should not be brought into contact with those metals or alloys.
