Performance of gaskets and O-rings in terms of long sealing and purity if of vital importance to bioprocess applications. Since seals are primarily manufactured from elastomeric materials, a basic understanding of the composition of elastomers along with concepts for evaluating both performance and purity is necessary to make an informed decision for your application. In order to gain a better understanding of elastomers and their effects on seal performance, Integra has put together an informative set of Guidelines for Gaskets and O-rings in Bioprocess Applications that include: Elastomer Basics, Evaluating Gasket and O-ring Performance and Purity, Evaluating Elastomer Purity and Hygienic Clamp Unions and Torque Requirements.
