N2 - The compatibility of elastomer materials used in fuel dispensers was assessed for a gasoline standard containing 0, 10, 17, and 25 vol. % of an aggressive ethanol solution (described by SAE J1681). Specimens of fluorocarbon, fluorosilicone, acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR), styrene butadiene rubber (SBR), silicone rubber, neoprene and polyurethane were immersed in test fuels flowing at a rate of 0.8m/s for 4 weeks at 60°C and then dried for 20h at 60°C. The change in volume, mass and hardness were measured for wet and dried conditions and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) was measured for the dry condition only.
