Uncovering Silicone Rubber: Manufacturing Process and Remarkable Properties

Hits: 661 img

The manufacturing process of silicone rubber is intricate and precise, often involving alkali-catalyzed or acid-catalyzed polymerization methods. The raw silicone rubber gum undergoes mixing, vulcanization, and other procedures to form the final elastomer. Vulcanization, a crucial step in silicone rubber production, utilizes organic peroxides or other vulcanizing agents to initiate crosslinking reactions under high temperatures, transforming the gum into silicone rubber products with exceptional properties.

Silicone rubber boasts a diverse and notable array of properties. Beyond its high and low-temperature resistance, it also exhibits excellent weatherability, electrical properties, and chemical stability. The unique Si-O-Si bond structure endows silicone rubber with remarkable stability against oxygen, ozone, and ultraviolet radiation. Additionally, its high gas permeability and low moisture absorption make it suitable for specific applications, such as waterproof and breathable materials.
