What is EPDM?

EPDM, which stands for Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer, is a type of highly durable synthetic rubber widely utilized across numerous industries

Developed in the 1960s, its unique chemical structure provides excellent resistance to weathering, ozone, UV radiation, and extreme temperatures, making it ideal for outdoor applications and environments exposed to harsh elements.

EPDM hose chemical resistance

EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) hose generally offers excellent chemical resistance to a wide range of substances, making it a versatile choice for many industrial applications. 

Its robust molecular structure provides good stability when exposed to various chemicals, though compatibility can depend on factors like concentration, temperature, and specific chemical compounds.

Here are some general categories where EPDM typically exhibits good to excellent chemical resistance:

  • Acids and Alkalis: EPDM shows strong resistance to many dilute and concentrated acids (e.g., sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid) and alkalis (e.g., sodium hydroxide, ammonia).
  • Water and Steam: It performs exceptionally well in water and steam applications, including hot water and low-pressure steam, due to its low permeability.
  • Ozone and Weathering: EPDM is highly resistant to ozone, UV radiation, and general weathering, making it ideal for outdoor and automotive applications where exposure to elements is common.
  • Polar Solvents: It stands up well against polar solvents such as alcohols (methanol, ethanol), ketones (acetone, MEK), and brake fluids.
  • Aqueous Solutions: EPDM is compatible with many aqueous salt solutions, detergents, and some industrial coolants.

EPDM vs PVC hose

EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) and PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) are two widely used materials for hose manufacturing, each with distinct properties that make them suitable for different applications. Here’s a comparison:

 

1. Chemical Resistance:

  • EPDM: Generally offers excellent chemical resistance to a broad range of substances, including acids, alkalis, water, steam, ozone, and polar solvents (like alcohols and ketones). It’s not typically recommended for use with oils, fuels, and aromatic hydrocarbons.
  • PVC: Has good chemical resistance to many acids, alkalis, and salts. However, its resistance can be compromised by exposure to certain solvents, chlorinated and aromatic hydrocarbons, esters, and ketones. Plasticized PVC (flexible PVC) can have poorer chemical resistance compared to rigid PVC.

2. Temperature Range:

  • EPDM: Boasts a wider temperature range, typically performing well from approximately -40°C to +150°C (or even higher for specific formulations). This makes it ideal for applications involving hot water, steam, and in automotive cooling systems.
  • PVC: Has a more limited temperature range, typically from around -20°C to +60°C. It can become brittle in cold temperatures and soften at higher temperatures, restricting its use in extreme environments.
     

3. Flexibility:

  • EPDM: Known for its excellent flexibility, especially across a wide range of temperatures. It maintains its pliability even in cold conditions, making it easier to handle and less prone to kinking.
  • PVC: Offers good flexibility, particularly in its plasticized form. However, it tends to stiffen significantly in colder temperatures, which can make it challenging to work with.
     

4. Durability and Weather Resistance:

  • EPDM: Highly durable and renowned for its superior resistance to weathering, ozone, and UV radiation. This makes it an excellent choice for outdoor and automotive applications where exposure to the elements is common. It’s less prone to cracking and perishing over time compared to some other rubber types.
  • PVC: Also durable and resistant to UV radiation, especially when additives are included. However, it can become brittle and crack with prolonged exposure to sunlight and cold, and it may not have the same long-term resilience as EPDM, particularly in demanding industrial settings.

5. Applications:

  • EPDM: Common in automotive (radiator hoses, heater hoses), HVAC, water and steam transfer, outdoor industrial applications, and some food and beverage applications where high temperatures and chemical resistance to non-oily substances are required.
  • PVC: Widely used in general water transfer (garden hoses), chemical handling (for compatible chemicals), air flow, agricultural spraying, and residential applications due to its affordability, transparency (for clear PVC), and ease of handling in moderate conditions.

what is EPDM hose used for?

EPDM hose is highly valued across various industries due to its exceptional resistance to heat, weathering, ozone, UV radiation, and many polar chemicals. Its flexibility and durability over a broad temperature range make it suitable for demanding applications where long-term performance and reliability are crucial.

  • Automotive Industry: Used extensively for coolant hoses, radiator hoses, heater hoses, and brake system components. EPDM’s resistance to high temperatures and automotive fluids (excluding petroleum-based oils and fuels) ensures engine cooling and reliable braking performance.

  • HVAC Systems: Employed in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems for transferring hot and cold fluids. Its temperature resistance and ability to withstand ozone exposure make it ideal for both indoor and outdoor HVAC applications, preventing leaks and ensuring efficient operation.

  • Water Transfer and Plumbing: Commonly found in garden hoses, industrial water lines, and residential plumbing systems. EPDM’s excellent resistance to water, aging, and outdoor elements ensures long-lasting, leak-free performance in various water-related applications.

  • Industrial and Chemical Applications: Utilized for conveying various non-petroleum-based chemicals, acids, and alkalis. Its robust chemical resistance makes it a reliable choice for industrial processes where aggressive substances need to be transferred safely and efficiently.

  • Agricultural Spraying: Used in equipment for spraying water-based pesticides and fertilizers due to its resistance to many agricultural chemicals. EPDM hoses can withstand the corrosive nature of these substances, ensuring durability and consistent performance in farming operations.

why use EPDM hoses

EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) hoses are a preferred choice in numerous applications due to their exceptional combination of properties. They offer superior performance and longevity compared to many other materials, especially in challenging environments. Their robust nature translates to reduced maintenance and replacement costs, providing a reliable and cost-effective solution for fluid transfer.

  • Excellent Weather and Ozone Resistance: EPDM hoses stand up remarkably well to outdoor exposure, including UV radiation, ozone, and general weathering. This makes them ideal for applications where hoses are continuously exposed to the elements, preventing cracking, hardening, and degradation over time.

  • Wide Temperature Range: EPDM maintains its flexibility and performance across a broad spectrum of temperatures, typically from as low as -40°C up to +150°C. This makes it suitable for both hot and cold fluid transfer, from automotive cooling systems to industrial hot water lines.

  • Superior Chemical Resistance: EPDM exhibits strong resistance to a wide array of chemicals, including many acids, alkalis, alcohols, and ketones. This broad compatibility makes it a reliable choice for transferring various industrial chemicals and cleaning agents, ensuring safety and preventing material breakdown.

  • Durability and Longevity: EPDM’s inherent toughness provides excellent resistance to abrasion, tearing, and general wear and tear. This high durability means EPDM hoses have a longer service life, reducing the frequency of replacements and contributing to overall operational efficiency.
