CSM 40/ CSM 45 Hypalon® Rubber
Chlorosulfonated Polyethylene (CSM) is a synthetic rubber derived from polyethylene, which combines the qualities of Neoprene Polychloroprene and other desirable traits. This versatile rubber material can withstand continuous use at temperatures of up to approximately 130 degrees Celsius. CSM is well-known for its exceptional resistance to atmospheric factors and its ability to resist various chemicals. Due to these advantageous properties, CSM finds extensive use in both industrial and automotive applications that demand high performance and resilience against extreme weather conditions. Some common products that utilize chlorosulfonated polyethylene rubber include rubber linings, hoses, valve seals, gaskets, and more.
