    NBR can certainly fail RoHS depending on the plasticizers that they use. Certain chemicals cause cancer etc. From a medical perspective, much safer to use silicone, which are also available in some hardware stores as viton, but are usually reddish in color. Although silicone can come in any color that you like.

    *correction, viton is not silicone, but still used in medical applications
