Viton is a brand name of synthetic rubber and fluoropolymer elastomer, commonly used in O-rings and other molded or extruded products. It is a highly fluorinated carbon-based polymer divided into five classes based on chemical composition, fluorine content, or their cross-linking method. Viton is a fluoropolymer elastomer and synthetic rubber compound, trademarked by DuPont under this brand name. It is a fluorinated hydrocarbon rubber product with amazing capabilities, developed to withstand even the most challenging of environments. Viton is used in some of the harshest environments, where temperature extremes and chemical interactions are common. It is known for its exceptional fluid resistance, making it an ideal choice for environments where certain challenges and factors are present, such as high temperatures, chemicals, and environmental challenges. Viton is more expensive than neoprene or nitrile rubber elastomers.
