9 A. Kömmling - Analysis of O-Ring Seal Failure Under Static Conditions and Determination of End-Of-Lifetime Criterion (2019) by Norton is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This study analyzes the failure of O-ring seals made from EPDM and HNBR under static conditions to establish a reliable end-of-lifetime criterion. The research indicates that O-rings can remain leak-tight even with significant material degradation, and proposes a modified leakage test to determine a conservative end-of-lifetime criterion that accounts for safety margins. The findings emphasize the importance of understanding the aging processes of elastomers and the need for effective testing methods to ens
