<p num="1">A resilient seat seal for a valve. The seal has a closed liquid- filled void therewithin, and the liquid redistributes within the seal as a portion of the seal is compressed, thereby causing effective sealing by all portions of the seal. Examples are shown with the seal used in a knife gate valve, a ball valve, and a butterfly valve. Preferably the seal is made of elastomer or polymer material such as GFLT ("good for low temperature") FKM. The liquid within the void of the seal is preferably an antifreeze liquid such as ethylene glycol.
