First of all, silicone rubber is a synthetic elastomer made of filler-reinforced cross-linked silicone-based polymer. It achieves a combination of chemical and mechanical properties unmatched by organic elastomers.
What are the advantages of materials of this nature?
First: It has a longer service life in harsh environments, and is not affected by the weather for a long time-rain, snow, humidity, ozone, solar ultraviolet (UV); organic elastomers are exposed to the environment for a long time May become brittle.
Second: a wider temperature range-from -100oC to 316oC (-148 to 600oF); organic elastomers will soften and irreversibly deform when the temperature exceeds 100oC (212oF), and when the temperature is lower than 25oC (-13oF) ) Will become brittle.
Third: When exposed to harsh environmental stress (heat, cold, humidity, oil, ozone, ultraviolet rays), its inherent good electrical insulation quality will not change significantly.
Fourth: It can maintain its natural flexibility and elasticity (anti-compression deformation) in a wide temperature range, and improve the comfort and feel of consumer products.
Fifth: Good sealing performance.
Sixth: Inertness (tasteless, odorless);
Seventh: Safety and environmental protection, widely used in food processing tools, baby products, etc.
Eighth: More choices-a wider range of hardness (from Shore A10 to 80), a wider range of color options (from transparent to bright colors).
Ninth: Better fluidity-easy to manufacture and improve productivity.
