Im looking for an addtive that can be mixed with Polypropylene during extrusion that will make it more resistant to deformation. Currently as temperature rises PP tends to deform.
Nitrile age hardens in hydrocarbon.
Elevating the temperature increses the rate of physical property loss.
Decreasing the temperature and reducing the API gravity or the Aromatic level of the oil will extend the hose life.
Hydrogenated Nitrile Butadiene rubber will last considerably longer but...
