🔍 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.
