STYRENE BUTADIENE (SBR)
Styrene butadiene is a low cost, general purpose elastomer. Known as Buna-S, it was originally developed to replace natural rubber in tires. SBR exhibits very good flex properties and is resistant to many polar type chemicals such as alcohols and ketones. It is also widely accepted for use in automotive brake fluids. SBR, however, is not resistant to petroleum based fluids.
