RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

Aiming to the Top

NEXA has an engineering department that counts on more than thirty years of technical knowledge and expertise in the manufacturing of customized sealing solutions.

At NEXA we formulate each compound using different types of polymers.

When a customer comes to us with a request, we welcome the opportunity to establish what is the best compound for that specific application. It’s not uncommon for us to challenge the status quo and to create new compounds that break the barrier of excellence.

In fact, each compound developed by NEXA is formulated not only to meet but also to exceed the various set of requirements specific to each application: hardness and compression set, elongation at break and tensile strength and last but not least, color.

Here below is a short noncomprehensive list of polymeric materials that we use:

  • Perfluoelastomers FFKM/FFPM
  • Fluorocarbon FKM/FPM
  • Hydrogenated Nitrile Butadiene Rubber HNBR
  • Ethylene Propylene
  • Chloroprene CR
  • Nitrile Butadiene Rubber NBR
  • Silicone VMQ
  • Fluorosilicone FVQM
 

NEXA compounds are formulated in compliance with the latest industry standards, tests and certifications:

  • FDA
  • NORSOK M-710 (established by the Norwegian Petroleum Industry)
  • ISO 23936-2 (the newest global standard)
  • Rapid Gas Decompression (RGD) resistance
  • API 6A FF/HH (ISO standard 10423:2009)
  • Chemical compatibility in sour service (H2S) and sweet service applications
  • TOTAL GS EPPVV142
