Viton™ Resistance To Reduce Emissions

Viton Permeation Resistance Will Reduce Emissions

Even if high temperatures or aggressive fluids are not involved, Viton may be specified because it has good resistance to permeation. In automotive, chemical processing, and other industries, Viton FKM helps minimize fugitive emissions to meet Clean Air Act requirements.
