Want to know what is the use of silicone products? With the development of the silicone industry worldwide, there are silicone products everywhere; let's talk about the most common silicone keys, silicone phone covers, and so on. When we use a calculator, we find that the keys are very flexible, flexible, and comfortable to touch. Silicone has an open porous structure and can adsorb many substances, making it a good desiccant, adsorbent, and catalyst carrier. The adsorption effect of silicone is mainly physical adsorption, which can be regenerated and used repeatedly. So what is the use of silicone products, and what fields is it applicable to? Weisun silicone will answer the following questions for you.

 

Silicone, also known as silicate gel, is a highly active adsorbent material, which is an amorphous substance. Silicone has many advantages over similar materials, such as high adsorption performance, chemical stability (except for strong alkali, strong acid does not react with any substances), good thermal stability, high mechanical strength, etc.

 

According to its nature and composition, silicone can be divided into two categories: organic silicone and inorganic silicone. Organic silicone is mainly used in aviation, cutting-edge technology, military technology sectors of special materials and construction, electrical and electronic, automotive, machinery, chemical light industry, medicine, and medical treatment, etc.; inorganic silicone is mainly used in desiccant, catalyst carrier, matting agent, toothpaste abrasive, etc. The toughness and elasticity of silicone products are very good. External forces will not deform them; they are non-toxic, tasteless, and colorless without harming the human body.

 

Features of silicone products:

 

(1) High and low-temperature resistance: they can be used for a long time at 200℃ and still have elasticity at -60℃.

 

(2) Electrical insulation properties: The dielectric properties of silicone rubber are excellent, especially at high temperatures, which greatly exceed those of general organic rubber, and the dielectric strength is almost unaffected by temperatures in the range of 20-200°C.

 

(3) Excellent weathering, ozone, and UV irradiation resistance.

 

(4) Excellent high-temperature compression permanent deformation.

 

(5) Good processing performance, easy molding, and other advantages can be extruded by hot air vulcanization molding, die-plus molding, extended molding, and other production methods.

 

Silicone products are mainly used in the following places:

 

Silicone products are indispensable for making copiers, keyboards, electronic dictionaries, remote controls, toys, silicone keys, etc.

 

It can make durable shaped molding gaskets, encapsulation materials for electronic parts, and maintenance materials for automotive electronic parts.

 

It can make electronic components and molded high-point pressure edge sub.

 

It can produce kitchen products, kitchenware, and related auxiliary kitchenware products.

 

It can be used for medical equipment accessories and is widely used in the medical industry due to silicone's colorless, tasteless, and non-toxic characteristics.

 

It can be used to make conductive silicone, medical silicone, foam silicone, mold-making silicone, etc.

 

It can be used in the construction and repair of houses, sealing of high-speed kilometer joints, sealing of bridges, and other sealing projects.

 

It can be used for baby products, mother and baby products, baby bottles, and bottle protectors.

 

Silicone products, due to the superior performance of silicone materials, coupled with silicone as a non-petroleum product, do not rely on increasingly scarce oil resources, making silicone products become a substitute for similar plastic products has long become inevitable; at the same time, silicone products can be applied to a lot of plastic products can not do the field, such as baby pacifiers, organs for the human body, etc., the application prospects are very broad.
