Encapsulated O-rings Market Top Companies, Trends and Future Prospects Details for Business Development to 2030

Encapsulated O-rings: Introduction

Encapsulated O-rings are specially developed seals consisting of a uniform PTFE FEP/PFA jacket, which completely encloses a core material Viton fluoroelastomer (FKM) or silicone

Encapsulated O-rings are available in two different types of core: solid core and hollow core. These are designed for different applications. Solid core rings are usually preferred owing to their excellent resistance to compression set and good recovery characteristics. Hollow core contains a circular gap within its structure in order to provide effective sealing for situations where a more flexible, easier-to-squeeze O-ring is needed.

Encapsulated O-rings core material can be made up of silicone, stainless steel spring, or FKM core. FKM core offers better chemicals and compression set resistance in comparison to silicone core, thus resulting in longer lasting sealing in some applications. However, at a colder temperature, silicone core would be recommended as silicone stays flexible at the lowest temperatures of all elastomers, without noticeable change in its properties.

Manufacturers employ FEP (fluorinated ethylene propylene) or PFA (Perfluoroalkoxycopolymer) outer jacket materials to cover the FKM/silicone/EPDM/stainless steel spring core material. FEP has low coefficient of friction & compression set and can resist chemicals. However, in comparison to PFA material, FEP exhibits lower mechanical strength and operates at a temperature range of -60 °C to +205 °C. PFA material can resist a wide range of corrosive chemicals such as alcohol, naphtha, acid, petroleum, and aromatic solvents. PFA jacket material can operate at a temperature range of -60 °C to +260 °C. Service life of FEP is slightly shorter as compared to PFA. FEP are generally lower in cost too.

Key Drivers of Encapsulated O-rings Market

Encapsulated O-rings are used as sealing materials for high pressure applications in chemical, pharmaceutical, and other end-use industries. Demand for encapsulated O-rings has been rising due to the skyrocketing pace of advancement in the pharmaceutical industry. It has lately come to light that the chemical industry is among the largest industrial consumers of encapsulated O-rings across the world.

Use of hostile chemicals or extreme temperature can damage traditional rubber O-Ring seals. This makes sealing process very difficult. Encapsulated O-rings are used to provide highly effective and long lasting seal to counter the growing issue of sealing in the most hostile chemical and temperature environments. This is also expected to propel the demand for encapsulated O-rings in the next few years.

Encapsulated O-rings are also used in the field of petrochemicals. In addition to the resistance to aggressive chemicals, encapsulated O-rings must withstand high temperatures and pressures. During steam cracking process, temperature continues to rise at a level of 800°C. The real challenge for encapsulated O-rings arises when temperature suddenly changes owing to subsequent cooling of the gas. Encapsulated O-rings can easily withstand these temperature changes and increase in pressure during the compression of the cracking gas. Thus, they are ideal for usage as sealing materials.

Key Restraint of Encapsulated O-rings Market

Encapsulated O-rings have certain limitations that can hamper the market. For instance, the outer jacket material of O-rings is susceptible to scratching. Hence, it is not recommended to use in applications containing abrasive slurries or powders. Encapsulated O-rings are also ideal for static applications or slow moving rotary applications. However, they are not suitable for highly dynamic systems. This can hamper the encapsulated O-rings market.

Covid-19 Impact on Encapsulated O-rings Market

The COVID-19 pandemic has severely impacted end-use industries of encapsulated O-rings. Chemical, petrochemical, oil & gas, and automotive are among the worst-hit industries by the pandemic. On the other hand, food & beverage and pharmaceutical industries have been experiencing the least impact of the pandemic.
