Methyl vinyl silicone rubber (VMQ) is a significant silicone rubber material, copolymerized from dimethyl siloxane and a small amount of vinyl siloxane. It exhibits various excellent properties that make it outstanding in various applications.
VMQ possesses superior heat resistance and high-temperature compression deformation resistance, with a wide temperature range from -60°C to 260°C, maintaining good elasticity. This characteristic allows it to be stable in high-temperature environments such as microwaves and ovens. Additionally, VMQ has a long lifespan and stable chemical properties, resulting in products with longer durability than other materials.
VMQ also boasts diverse colors, ease of cleaning, softness, and environmental friendliness. It can be customized to different colors based on customer needs, and the solid silicone products made from it can be easily cleaned with water. The softness of silicone materials makes the products comfortable to touch and deformation-resistant. Meanwhile, from raw materials to finished products, VMQ does not produce any toxic or harmful substances, meeting environmental requirements.
In terms of applications, VMQ is widely used in the production of various seals, molded and extruded products. For example, silicone gaskets, silicone O-RINGS, and silicone sleeves, as well as seals, gaskets, tubing, and rods for the aerospace industry's cold-resistant rubber and parts resistant to ablation, heat aging, or radiation.
