Choosing a seal material for Ethylene Glycol Ethyl Ether Acetate

The table above rates every common O-ring elastomer for service in Ethylene Glycol Ethyl Ether Acetate on an A–D scale. A is Excellent, B is Good, C is Fair (test before relying on it), and D is Not Recommended. An X indicates insufficient published data.

For Ethylene Glycol Ethyl Ether Acetate, the strongest candidates are Perfluoroelastomer, Ethylene Propylene. These ratings are representative at ambient conditions (~20°C). Compatibility shifts with temperature, concentration, pressure and exposure time, so always validate the material against your real operating envelope before committing to a design.
