The discovery of new hydrocarbon deposits in Alaska, Siberia, North Sea, etc., areas in which the climatic conditions reach extremely rigid temperatures, led Oldrati Group to develop sealing systems able to operate up to – 60° C.
In the field of hydrogenated nitrile rubber (HNBR), Oldrati Group proposes OLD NHP-ICE 90; this product guarantees an excellent behaviour in the presence of hydrocarbons of different composition and is also able to maintain static sealing in dry conditions up to -60° C.
For applications in extremely hostile environments from a chemical point of view, such as in the presence of high percentages of amines, hydrogen sulphide, vapour or methanol, Oldrati Group suggests using materials of the OLD-REX ICE series. These products have been realized by using a brand new generation of perfluor elastomers that, thanks to their structure and monomeric composition, can reach static sealing temperatures below -40° C.
The use of these components allows to safely operate in different Artic environments where materials not specifically designed for these applications inevitably cause the inefficiency of the whole system.
