Yes, diesel can be used to clean rubber, as it can effectively break down grease, oil, and dirt. However, it is important to use it with caution, as diesel can degrade certain types of rubber over time, potentially leading to damage or deterioration. Always test a small, inconspicuous area first and consider using safer, rubber-specific cleaning products when possible.

Would diesel leak cause damage to rubber?

Yes, diesel fuel can cause damage to rubber materials over time. Diesel can degrade rubber by breaking down its chemical structure, leading to swelling, loss of elasticity, and eventual cracking. The extent of damage depends on the type of rubber and the duration of exposure to the diesel. It's advisable to replace any rubber components that have been contaminated with diesel to prevent further issues.

Why does rubber band expand in petrol or diesel?

Rubber bands expand in petrol or diesel because these hydrocarbons are solvents that can penetrate and swell the rubber material. The hydrocarbons in the fuel disrupt the molecular structure of the rubber, causing it to absorb the liquid and increase in volume. This swelling can lead to a loss of elasticity and strength in the rubber, ultimately affecting its performance.
