BUTYL RUBBER (IIR)

BUTYL rubber is the synthetic elastomer resulting from the copolymerization of isobutylene and isoprene. It offers excellent resistance to extreme temperatures (-60°C to +180°C), bad weather and aging.

Advantages of Butyl rubber:

  • Great impermeability.
  • Excellent cushioning quality
  • Good chemical resistance to: concentrated mineral acids (hydrochloric, sulfuric, hydrofluoric, nitric, phosphoric) ammonia and concentrated alkalis, halogenated or nitrated derivatives, organic acids (acetic, lactic), ketones, alcohols and esters.
  • Very good resistance to extreme temperatures

Limits: hydrocarbons (oils and fats), aliphatic, aromatic or chlorinated solvents.

Example of IIR applications:

  • Inner tubes,
  • Gloves roof coverings,
  • Shock absorbers

Sectors of use of Butyl:

  • Construction
  • Tires
