Silicone rubber, also known as silicone, is a high-molecular-weight elastomer based on polysiloxanes. Its molecular backbone is composed of alternating silicon and oxygen atoms, with silicon atoms typically connected to two organic groups. Silicone rubber is widely used in various fields due to its unique physical and chemical properties, such as high and low temperature resistance, aging resistance, and excellent electrical insulation.

Silicone rubber is particularly notable for its heat resistance, capable of withstanding temperatures up to 150°C without significant performance degradation and even short-term exposure to temperatures up to 350°C. It also exhibits good cold resistance, maintaining elasticity at temperatures as low as -60°C to -70°C. Furthermore, silicone rubber has superior electrical insulation properties, with stable electrical performance across a wide range of temperatures and frequencies, even when exposed to moisture.

The applications of silicone rubber are vast. In the electrical industry, it is used as insulation for wire and cable, transformers, and motors. In the medical field, silicone rubber is favored for its non-toxic, odorless, and physiologically inert characteristics, making it suitable for artificial heart valves, pacifiers, and other medical devices. Additionally, silicone rubber is used as a sealing material, thermal conductivity material, and anti-fouling coating.
