Why is NBR rated this way to Ethylenediamine?
NBR has limited resistance to Ethylenediamine. Short-term exposure may be acceptable, but prolonged contact is not recommended.
⚠️ When NOT to use NBR
Avoid using Nitrile Rubber (Buna-N) with strong oxidizers, ketones, chlorinated solvents, and ozone. Not suitable for polar solvents.
