2. Gasket - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasket

   Gaskets allow for "less-than-perfect" mating surfaces on machine parts where they can fill irregularities. Gaskets are commonly produced by cutting from sheet materials. Given the potential cost and safety implications of faulty or leaking gaskets, it is critical that the correct gasket material is selected to fit the needs of the application. [2]

3. Bonded seal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonded_seal

   Now widely manufactured, they are available in a range of standard sizes and materials [2] [3] [4] A bonded seal consists of an outer annular ring of a hard material, typically steel, and an inner annular ring of an elastomeric material that acts as a gasket. It is the compression of the elastomeric part between the faces of the parts on either ...

4. Faraday cage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_cage

   A microwave oven uses a partial Faraday shield (on five of its interior six sides) and a partial Faraday cage, consisting of a wire mesh, on the sixth side (the transparent window), to contain the electromagnetic energy within the oven and to protect the user from exposure to microwave radiation. [8]

5. EPDM rubber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EPDM_rubber

   A common use is in vehicles, where EPDM is used for door seals, window seals, trunk seals, and sometimes hood seals. [11] Other uses in vehicles include wiper blades, [12] cooling system circuit hoses; water pumps, thermostats, EGR valves, EGR coolers, heaters, oil coolers, radiators, and degas bottles are connected with EPDM hoses.

6. Synthetic rubber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic_rubber

   About 32 million metric tons of rubbers are produced annually in the United States, and of that amount two thirds are synthetic. Synthetic rubber, just like natural rubber, has many uses in the automotive industry for tires, door and window profiles, seals such as O-rings and gaskets, hoses, belts, matting, and flooring. They offer a different ...

7. Electromagnetic shielding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_shielding

   The door of a microwave oven has a screen built into the window. From the perspective of microwaves (with wavelengths of 12 cm) this screen finishes a Faraday cage formed by the oven's metal housing. Visible light, with wavelengths ranging between 400 nm and 700 nm, passes easily through the screen holes.
