Very Heat-Resistant Rubber Compared with natural rubber, neoprene is more resistant to gas penetration and can operate at temperatures up to 200°C. Even at such a high temperature, neoprene will not physically degrade, it will not show up in the form of melting or stretching, but will show hardening. It is also fireproof.

Chemical Resistant Neoprene is chemically inert and valued for its ability to withstand petroleum-based mixtures, such as solvents, oils, and greases. Additionally, it can withstand methanol and ethanol as well as alkalis, inorganic acids and some salt solutions.

DIY Gasket Material It can replace the same type of damaged rubber. It is easy to cut and only requires a pair of scissors to fit any DIY project.

Building Use Due to its weather resistance, temperature resistance and pressure resistance, neoprene is used in gaskets, woodworking machinery gaskets, elevator astragals and other replacement seals.
