NBR (Acrylonitrile-Butadiene Rubber)

- Application
- ICE / Motor
- Solution
- Sustainability
NBR (Acrylonitrile-Butadiene Rubber) is a synthetic rubber that excels in resisting oil and abrasion. Zeon manufactures and sells various types of NBR from products with low to very high acrylonitrile content. We have a diverse portfolio of NBR products, including carboxylated grades and isoprene modified NBR, as well as products in powder, liquid, and other forms.
Zeon manufactures and sells NBR/PVC, which blends polyvinylchloride (PVC) with NBR. NBR/PVC features superior ozone resistance.
Zeon can supply an ISCC PLUS-certified NBR through the mass balance approach, as a sustainable product.
Characteristics
- Oil and Fuel Resistance
- Various types of NBR are available, ranging from low to very high acrylonitrile content. We also offer a selection of other products, suitable for the required level of resistance to low temperatures, oil, or fuel.
- Abrasion Resistance
- NBR is a synthetic rubber that excels in abrasion resistance. Carboxylated nitrile rubber, or XNBR, is especially resistant to abrasion.
- Sustainable Product (ISCC PLUS-Certified)
- Zeon can supply an ISCC PLUS-certified NBR through the mass balance approach by procuring sustainable C4 fractions made from bio-naphtha to manufacture the synthetic rubber.
