Choose the ANSI Flange Gasket to provide optimal protection and performance for your equipment.  
 
Superior Chemical Resistance  
The chemical resistance of the ANSI Flange Gasket is one of its most prominent advantages, primarily due to the excellent properties of its core materials—polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM).  
 
Chemical Resistance of PTFE  
PTFE is a fully fluorinated polymer with extremely high chemical inertness, capable of resisting corrosion from almost all strong acids, bases, organic solvents, and oxidizing agents. Below are the resistance data of PTFE in the ANSI Flange Gasket against common chemical substances:  
Chemical SubstanceConcentration Range Resistance EvaluationRemarks
Sulfuric Acid (H₂SO₄) 0-98%Fully ResistantIn 98% sulfuric acid, the PTFE layer shows no mass loss or physical property changes
Hydrochloric Acid (HCl)0-37%Fully ResistantIn 37% hydrochloric acid, the PTFE layer exhibits no swelling or corrosion
Nitric Acid (HNO₃)0-68%Fully ResistantIn 68% nitric acid, the PTFE layer remains stable with no chemical reactions
Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH)0-50%Fully ResistantIn 50% sodium hydroxide solution, the PTFE layer shows no degradation or deformation
Acetone (C₃H₆O)100%Fully ResistantIn pure acetone, the PTFE layer does not swell or dissolve
Benzene (C₆H₆)100%Fully ResistantIn pure benzene, the PTFE layer remains stable with no chemical reactions
 
Chemical Resistance of EPDM  
EPDM is a synthetic rubber with excellent ozone resistance, aging resistance, and weather resistance, while also demonstrating good tolerance to a variety of chemicals. Below are the resistance data of EPDM in the ANSI Flange Gasket against common chemical substances:  
Chemical SubstanceConcentration RangeResistance EvaluationRemarks
Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH)0-30%Good ResistanceIn 30% sodium hydroxide solution, the EPDM layer shows a tensile strength loss of <10%
Sulfuric Acid (H₂SO₄)0-50%Good ResistanceIn 50% sulfuric acid, the EPDM layer exhibits a volume change rate of <5%
Hydrochloric Acid (HCl)0-20%Good ResistanceIn 20% hydrochloric acid, the EPDM layer shows a hardness change of <10%
Acetone (C₃H₆O)100%Limited ResistanceIn pure acetone, the EPDM layer of the ANSI Flange Gasket exhibits a swelling rate of <20%
Benzene (C₆H₆)100%Limited ResistanceIn pure benzene, the EPDM layer of the ANSI Flange Gasket exhibits a swelling rate of <25%
 
Composite Advantages of PTFE Bonded to EPDM  
The ANSI Flange Gasket combines PTFE and EPDM to leverage the strengths of both materials while compensating for their individual limitations:  
PTFE Layer: As the primary barrier in contact with the medium, the PTFE layer of the ANSI Flange Gasket provides complete resistance to almost all chemical substances.  
 
EPDM Layer: The EPDM layer of the ANSI Flange Gasket offers elasticity and mechanical strength while enhancing the gasket's ozone resistance, aging resistance, and weather resistance.  
 
With its superior chemical resistance, the ANSI Flange Gasket can operate stably in extreme chemical environments, providing long-term reliable sealing performance. 
 
Whether against strong acids, bases, or organic solvents, the ANSI Flange Gasket demonstrates excellent tolerance, ensuring equipment safety and reducing maintenance costs.
