Chloroprene Rubber (CR) Diaphragm Filter Plates

Home > Blog > Industrial Filter Press Maintenance & Support

Chloroprene Rubber (CR), commonly known as Neoprene, is a synthetic rubber renowned for its exceptional weather resistance and ozone resistance. It is well-suited for handling corrosive media such as strong acids and strong bases, while also offering relatively high temperature tolerance. However, it is important to note that CR typically exhibits lower elasticity and abrasion resistance compared to some other elastomers.

Chemical Industry Application
In the chemical processing industry, common media include:
   Various acids and bases
   Salts
   Organic solvents

These substances are often highly corrosive to diaphragm materials, making it essential to select diaphragms with superior chemical corrosion resistance.

Chloroprene Rubber diaphragm filter plates provide a robust solution for corrosive chemical filtration where weather resistance and cost-effectiveness are important. For operations involving extreme temperatures or severe abrasion, alternative materials like Fluoroelastomer or Nitrile Rubber (NBR) should be evaluated based on the specific process conditions.
