Abstract: |
The work aims to study the aging behavior of FX-4 fluororubber under different working conditions to provide a scientific basis for assessing life of equipment in engineering practice. Based on the requirements of a certain equipment for the use of FX-4 fluororubber material, five aging tests were designed to simulate the working conditions. The aging behavior of FX-4 fluororubber under different temperature, media and strain was studied by observing the changes of appearance, mechanical properties, chemical structure, sealability, etc. After 9 000 hours of aging test, the compression set of FX-4 fluororubber showed an obvious increase trend, and the growth rate first increased, then slowed down and finally increased again. The decomposition temperature increased from 508 ℃ to about 520 ℃. The surface crystallinity and internal crystallinity decreased from 61.7% to about 37% and 48% respectively, indicating that the aging damage gradually extended from the surface to the interior of the sample. The molecular structure did not change fundamentally, and the sealability was not damaged. After 9 000 hours of aging test, FX-4 fluororubber has different degrees of aging, but still has good sealability and can be used normally. |
