• Elastomer Compatibility of Lubricating Greases

Elastomer Compatibility of Lubricating Greases


Tests the compatibility of lubricating greases and fluids with coupons cut from standard elastomer sheets. Compatibility is evaluated by determining the changes in volume and Durometer A hardness that occur when elastomer coupons are totally immersed in a lubricant sample for 70h or for a duration as required by the lubricant specification at either 100°C or 150°C or at a test temperature as required by the lubricant specification.
