Sour Gas, Hydrogen Sulfide ( H2S ) as well as ammine inhibitors used to mitigate corrosion have been successfully sealed using 7182 brand Aflas since 1980. 
Seals Eastern's 7182 brand formulated Aflas provides outstanding resistance to sour gas, as well as high concentrations of hydrogen sulfide, also known as H2S, a deadly poisonous gas found during oil and gas production. Whereas most rubber seals will experience excessive hardening and subsequent failure in low concentrations (ppm) of hydrogen sulfide, 7182 brand Aflas exhibits outstanding resistance to concentrations of in excess of 60%. The following data compiled by MERL Ltd , a third party testing lab, illustrates the robustness of 7182 brand Aflas in high concentrations of H2S, even at elevated temperatures (200°C). Seals Eastern's 7182 brand Aflas is likewise resistant to amine corrosion inhibitors typically used to mitigate corrosion attributable to hydrogen sulfide.
