abstract = {We study the adhesion, friction and leak rate of seals for
four different elastomers: Acrylonitrile Butadiene Rubber
(NBR), Ethylene Propylene Diene (EPDM), Polyepichlorohydrin
(GECO) and Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). Adhesion between
smooth clean glass balls and all the elastomers is studied
both in the dry state and in water. In water, adhesion is
observed for the NBR and PDMS elastomers, but not for the
EPDM and GECO elastomers, which we attribute to the
differences in surface energy and dewetting. The leakage of
water is studied with rubber square-ring seals squeezed
against sandblasted glass surfaces. Here we observe a
strongly non-linear dependence of the leak rate on the water
pressure ΔP for the elastomers exhibiting adhesion in
water, while the leak rate depends nearly linearly on ΔP
for the other elastomers. We attribute the non-linearity to
some adhesion-related phenomena, such as dewetting or the
(time-dependent) formation of gas bubbles, which blocks
fluid flow channels. Finally, rubber friction is studied at
low sliding speeds using smooth glass and sandblasted glass
as substrates, both in the dry state and in water. The
measured friction coefficients are compared to theory, and
the origin of the frictional shear stress acting in the area
of real contact is discussed. The NBR rubber, which exhibits
the strongest adhesion both in the dry state and in water,
also shows the highest friction both in the dry state and in
water.},
