AEM
AEM is acrylate rubber, which is a synthetic rubber made from the copolymerization of acrylate monomers with a small amount of cross-linking monomers.
Material Profile
Acrylated ethylene rubber (AEM) is a specialty synthetic rubber typically made by copolymerizing ethylene and acrylate monomers. Its most outstanding advantage is its ability to maintain excellent performance in both high temperature and oily environments, with superior heat resistance, ozone aging resistance, and resistance to a wide range of lubricants and automatic transmission fluids. In addition, AEM has good vibration damping properties. Its comprehensive performance is between NBR and Viton, making it a cost-effective heat and oil resistant material.
application scenario
Due to its unique heat and oil resistance properties, AEM is widely used in the demanding automotive industry. It is a key material in the manufacture of automatic transmission seals, engine oil seals, O-rings, gaskets, as well as turbocharger hoses and oil cooler hoses. In the general industry, AEM is also used for seals and hoses that need to work in high-temperature oily environments for long periods of time to ensure the reliability and durability of equipment operation.
