Contact SupplierSilicone rubber is a versatile synthetic elastomer known for its exceptional heat resistance, flexibility, and toughness. Atoms of silicon, oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen dominate its chemical make-up. The main structural component is a silicon-oxygen (Si-O) backbone, to which silicon atoms are linked by organic groups like methyl (-CH3) or vinyl (-CH=CH2). Silicone rubber's distinctive features are due to its unusual molecular structure.
Due to its exceptional qualities, silicone rubber is widely used in a variety of industries. Its exceptional ability to withstand temperatures as high as -60°C to 230°C (-76°F to 446°F) makes it essential for applications needing resilience to both cold and heat. With moisture resistance, UV rays, ozone, and chemicals, silicone rubber ensures endurance in harsh environments.
Silicone rubber has a wide range of potential uses in the construction, automotive, aerospace, electronics, medical, and food processing sectors. It serves as a sealer, gasket, insulator, and material for kitchenware, medical devices, and other applications. It contributes to engine hoses and gaskets in the automotive industry, and it's utilized in medical tubing and prosthesis in the healthcare industry.
