Abstract

The studied materials based on the new rubbers of unique frost resistance -propylene oxide rubber (Tg = -74 °C) and Hydrin T6000 epichlorohydrin rubber are recommended to be used as static and dynamic sealing parts for the equipment operated in the North. This was based on the full-scale tests in cold climates (Republic of Sakha (Yakutia)) and evaluation of tribological characteristics (coefficient of friction) at negative temperatures. The standard techniques were used in assessing of the changes of the physical and mechanical, relaxation, and low-temperature characteristics of model rubbers after aging. A special testing unit and a method for conducting the tests were developed to estimate the coefficient of friction at low temperatures.
