VITOFLEX
CM-L

Protecting, damping, insulating and sealing.

VITOFEX CM-L is a one-sided self-adhesive, flexible cellular rubber with a closed-cell structure, based on EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Rubber). VITOFLEX CM-L is resistant against many acids and alkalics in usual concentrations, water and water vapour up to 100°C, seawater, potassium and sodium compounds (for example common salt solution), alum in aqueous solution, cleaning agents, photo chemicals, cold ammoniac, acetylene, alcohols, glycerine, brake fluids and antifreeze fluids based on glycol, carbonic acid, ozone, silicone oil and grease, chloride of lime in aqueous solution, wet and dry chlorine gas, hot ammoniac and hydrochloric acid.

Resistant to
Acids and alcalics in usual concentrations, water and water vapour up to 100°C, seawater, potassium and sodium compounds (for example common salt solution, aqueous alum solutions, detergents, photo chemicals, cold ammoniac, acetylene, alcohols, glycerine, brake fluids and antifreeze fluids based on glycol, carbonic acid, ozone, silicone oil and grease, chloride of lime in aqueous solution, and others.

Limitedly resistant to
Chlorine gas wet and dry, ammoniac hot, concentrated hydrochloric acid.

Not resistant to
Oils, fats, white spirit, solvents such as toluene, dichloromethane, trichloroethene, tetrachloroethene, nitro thinner, nitric acid, concentrated sulfuric acid.
