The objective of this research was to determine the resistance of frequently used sealing materials such as EPDM, FKM, FVMQ, CR, CSM, IIR, NBR, PA, PUR and VMQ in aged biodiesel and heating oil B10 with 10 % biodiesel.
The mass, tensile strength, breaking elongation and Shore hardnesses of the test specimens were determined before and after exposure in non-aged, one-year, two-year, three-year and four-year aged biodiesel and B10 at 20 °C, 40 °C and 70 °C.
A threshold for the reduction in tensile properties and Shore hardness is not set in the international standards. Therefore, a threshold of 15 % was set for the evaluation of the compatibility. The decrease in tensile properties and Shore hardness increased with the age and the temperature of the biodiesel and the heating oil.
The age of the biodiesel was not relevant for the sealing materials CR, CSM, EPDM, IIR and NBR, which were generally not resistant to biodiesel and B10. FKM and PA showed high compatibility in non-aged and aged biodiesel. FVMQ and PA could be evaluated as resistant in non-aged and aged B10 at 20°C and 40°C, whereas FKM was resistant up to 70°C despite of the age of B10.

Effect of different sulphur-based crosslink networks on the nitrile rubber resistance to biodiesel
(2017)
Biodiesel possesses some comparable physical properties to petroleum diesel in addition to its improved environmental benefits. Nonetheless, both fuels differ greatly with respect to their chemical compositions.
Therefore, the compatibility of the materials, which are commonly employed in contact with diesel, must also be assured for biodiesel. This paper assessed the influence of sulphur-based curing systems on the resistance of nitrile rubber to soybean biodiesel. Formulations were prepared using highacrylonitrile-content nitrile rubber by employing a two-level experimental design. The amounts of two different accelerators and sulphur were varied to achieve different types of vulcanisation systems.
Thermal analyses, mechanical tests and microscopy analyses were conducted to evaluate the behaviour of the material after contact with biodiesel. The results showed that the choice of the accelerator played an important role on the resistance of the rubber to the biofuel, and crosslink density was not a key factor with respect to the resistance.
