What is the function of silicone rubber?

Hits: 490 img

Among numerous synthetic rubbers, silicone rubber is the leader among them. It has the characteristics of being odorless and non-toxic, not afraid of high temperatures and resisting extreme cold. It remains calm and unchanged at temperatures of 300 degrees Celsius and minus 90 degrees Celsius, while still maintaining its original strength and elasticity. Silicone rubber also has outstanding electrical insulation, oxygen resistance, aging resistance, light resistance, aging resistance, mildew resistance, chemical stability, etc. Due to its excellent functions, silicone rubber has widely played an important role in modern medicine. In recent years, various silicone rubber medical products have been successfully developed through collaboration between hospitals, research institutions, and factories.

Anti noise earplugs: Comfortable to wear, can effectively isolate noise and maintain eardrums.
Rubber fetal head attractor: simple to operate, safe to use, can deform according to the size of the fetal head, and the fetal scalp will not be sucked up during attraction, which can prevent scalp hematoma and intracranial damage, and greatly reduce the pain of difficult to give birth mothers during labor.
Silicone rubber artificial blood vessel: With exceptional physiological functions, it can achieve close proximity to the human body, and the human body does not exclude it. After a certain period of time, it will fully integrate with the human body, and its stability is extremely outstanding.
Silicone rubber eardrum repair patch: The patch is thin and soft, with outstanding smoothness and durability. It is an ambitious material for repairing eardrums, and the operation is simple with good results.
In addition, there are also silicone rubber artificial trachea, artificial lung, artificial bone, silicone rubber duodenal tube, etc., all of which have very ambitious effects.

Silicone rubber has excellent heat resistance, cold resistance, dielectric properties, ozone resistance, and resistance to atmospheric aging. Its outstanding function is to be used at a wide temperature range, and can be used for a long time from -60 ℃ (or lower temperature) to+250 ℃ (or higher temperature). However, the mechanical functions of silicone rubber, such as tensile strength and tear resistance, are poor. At room temperature, its physical and mechanical functions are not as good as most synthetic rubbers. In addition, except for nitrile silicone and fluorosilicone rubber, the usual silicone rubber has poor oil and solvent resistance. Therefore, silicone rubber is not suitable for general conditions, but is very suitable for many specific situations.

It is worth mentioning that in biomedical engineering, polymer materials have a very important effect, and silicone rubber is a particularly important type of medical polymer materials. It has excellent physiological laziness, odorlessness, non corrosion, anticoagulation, good compatibility with the body, and can withstand harsh disinfection conditions. According to needs, it can be processed into pipes, sheets, films, and special-shaped components, which can be used as medical devices, artificial organs, etc. Nowadays, there are specialized medical grade silicone rubbers both domestically and internationally.
