Buna-N
Buna-N (Nitrile) is a synthetic rubber copolymer of acrylonitrile (ACN) and butadiene. It is one of the most commonly used elastomers due to its resistance to oils, fuels, and other chemicals, as well as its high mechanical strength. Nitrile rubber offers excellent wear resistance and good tensile strength.
Buna-N Recommended Uses
