Resistance to oxidative degradation by nitric acid has been selected for a comparison of polyethylene grades in a European standard on suitability proof for alternative plastic resins used for packagings and intermediate bulk containers (IBCs) for the transport of dangerous goods. Measurements of the infrared (IR) absorption spectra of microtome slices cut from the walls of jerricans, which were pre-stored with 55% nitric acid for 21 and 42 days at 40°C, showed changes in the structure of the polyethylene. The penetration depths of 55% nitric acid into the polyethylene grades are, in principle, suitable for evaluating the resistance to oxidative degradation of polyethylene grades after pre-storage of the packagings for 21 days. After this period the packaging wall is not fully penetrated. The intensities of the IR bands at 1565 cm-1 (-NO2), 1630 cm-1 (-C=C) and 1654 cm-1 (-O-NO2) increased with the treatment time with 55% nitric acid as a result of oxidative damage by the nitric acid. The high increase in absorbance of the -C=C band in the region 1630 - 1690 cm-1 is attributable to paraffinic chain cracks. The absorbance of the -O-NO2 band, formed as result of the nitration process was still low at a test temperature of 40°C.
Impact of biocomponents in the fuel and heating oil on the compatibility of sealing materials
(2016)
The objective of this research was to determine the resistance of frequently used sealing materials such as FKM, FVMQ, VMQ, EPDM, CR, CSM, IIR, PA, NBR and PUR in fuels and heating oil with and without admixtures of biogenic sources such as E10, diesel fuel with 5 % biodiesel, non-aged and 2 year aged B10 (heating oil with 10 % biodiesel), pure diesel, standard heating oil and premium grade fuel Super plus at 20 °C, 40 °C and 70 °C.
Mass, tensile strength and breaking elongation of the test specimens were determined before and after the exposure for 84 days in the fuels. The visual examination of some elastomer test specimens clearly showed the great volume increase until break or partial dissolution. Shore hardness A and D (for PA) were determined before and after exposure of the test specimens in the biofuels for 42 days.
There is not determined a threshold for the reduction in tensile properties and Shore hardness in the international standards. Therefore a threshold of 15 % was determined for the evaluation of the compatibility.
In summary, it can be therefore stated that the chemical resistance of the fluoropolymers FKM and FVMQ in fuels and biofuels is the best one.
