| Chemical Properties | Back Directory | [Appearance]
High tensile strength; relatively low per-
manent set; insensitive to temperature changes.
Attacked by heat, atmospheric oxygen, ozone,
hydrocarbons, and unsaturated fats and oils. Insol-
uble in acetone. Permeable to gases; supports
combustion; abrasion resistance poor unless com-
pounded with carbon black; dissipates vibration
shock; high electrical resistivity.
