The effect that some of the more significant environmental parameters can have on the physical and mechanical properties of seal materials is discussed. Extreme operating conditions of space are generally unfavourable to seal materials but in a few cases the effect can be favourable. The view is expressed that further exploration of behaviour of existing materials can lead to extension of performance capabilities of a number of materials.
