🔍 Why CSM / Hypalon® Outperforms Other Materials in Extreme Temperature and Chemical Conditions
In industries that operate in high-stress environments—whether it’s chemical processing, marine, automotive, or power generation—selecting the right rubber material is mission-critical. CSM, also known by the brand name Hypalon®, has long been recognized for its outstanding performance in extreme temperatures, aggressive chemicals, ozone exposure, and UV radiation.
At YQXPOLYMER, we manufacture high-quality CSM (Chlorosulfonated Polyethylene) rubber designed to outperform other materials where conventional elastomers fall short. Here’s how it compares:
🔬 1. Temperature Resistance
| Material | Operating Temp Range (°C) |
| CSM / Hypalon® | -40 to +160 |
| EPDM | -50 to +130 |
| NBR (Nitrile) | -30 to +110 |
| Silicone | -60 to +200 (but poor tear strength) |
CSM strikes the ideal balance between temperature stability and mechanical strength, especially in hot environments where EPDM or NBR may soften or crack.
🧫 2. Chemical Resistance
CSM exhibits superior resistance to:
- Acids and alkalis
- Bleach and oxidizing agents
- Ozone, UV, and aging
- Oil and fuels (moderate)
Compared to NBR (good for oils but poor in acids), or EPDM (resistant to water-based chemicals but poor in oils), CSM is the more balanced, robust performer.
🌊 3. Weathering, Ozone, and UV Resistance
Outdoor applications demand durability against weather, UV, and ozone.
CSM maintains structural integrity and surface stability even after prolonged exposure, making it the material of choice for:
- Cable sheaths
- Waterproof membranes
- Boat covers and marine hoses
Other materials degrade or crack over time—especially EPDM and NBR when UV exposure is high.
🏗 4. Mechanical Properties and Longevity
- Excellent abrasion resistance
- Strong tensile strength
- Long service life in harsh environments
This makes CSM ideal for gaskets, seals, coatings, and flexible barriers in aerospace, automotive, and defense industries.
