7 characteristics of solid silicone rubber compared with other organic rubber

Solid silicone rubber is composed of special silicone rubber and high purity silica powder, so it has the properties of both inorganic and organic materials. Solid silicone rubber has various excellent characteristics compared with other organic rubber, which are described as follows

More heat

Silicone rubber at 150C c almost no change, still can maintain good elasticity and organic rubber will change the brittleness.

More cold

The embrittlement temperature of silicone rubber is -60℃~-70℃ and the general organic rubber is -20℃~-30℃, so it can still maintain excellent characteristics at low temperature.

Weather resistance

Silicone rubber has been exposed to ultraviolet light, wind, rain in a long time almost no change in the physical properties.

Oil resistance, solvent resistance, chemical resistance

Silicone rubber has excellent resistance to oil compounds at high temperatures. They also have excellent resistance to solvents and other chemicals, and polar organic compounds and dilute acids and bases are almost unaffected.

Electrical insulation

Silicone rubber has electrical insulation over a wide range of temperatures and frequencies. Even when soaked in water, there is little sign of decline.

Permanent deflection of compression

They can maintain superior compression in a stable temperature range (-60 ° C to +250 ° C).

Transparency and coloring

Silicone rubber is highly transparent, which means they can be easily colored with a variety of pigments.
