• Interfacial leakage of elastomer seals at low temperatures 

      Akulichev, Anton; Echtermeyer, Andreas; Persson, B. N. J (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Interfacial leakage of air in hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber (HNBR) O-ring seals exposed to sub-ambient temperatures is studied. Flange-type fixtures with sealing surfaces produced by 3 different surface finish ...
    • Rubber contact mechanics: adhesion, friction and leakage of seals 

      Tiwari, Avinash; Dorogin, Leonid; Tahir, M; Stöckelhuber, Klaus Werner; Heinrich, Gert; Espallargas, Nuria; Persson, B. N. J (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      We study the adhesion, friction and leak rate of seals for four different elastomers: Acrylonitrile Butadiene Rubber (NBR), Ethylene Propylene Diene (EPDM), Polyepichlorohydrin (GECO) and Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). ...
