The Many Uses of Silicone Rubber

Take a look at some of the different areas where silicone rubber is commonly used.
  • Construction & Restoration
One of the most common uses of silicone is for construction. Due to its adhesive properties, it can be used to bind together important building materials, such as concrete, plastics, glass, metal, and granite. This enhances the strength and durability of a structure, securing it against moisture, pollution, heat and other elements that cause wear and tear. Similarly, silicone is also used for restoring old buildings without altering their original appearance.
  • Electronics
There is no end to the number of silicone rubber applications in the field of electronics today. It is often used to seal the inner circuits and processors of most electronic gadgets, protecting them from heat, corrosion, moisture and other conditions that can cause wear and tear.
  • Aviation
Silicone is known for its properties of resistance to extreme stress and temperatures, making it not just useful, but essential in the aviation industry. Silicone adhesives are used to seal crucial parts of planes like doors, windows, fuel tanks, vent ducts, and so on, thereby reducing the risk of mishaps during flights.
  • Healthcare
Silicone also has resistance to bacteria, a fact that makes it the ideal material for healthcare products. It is often used for making prosthetics, infant care products and other medical articles that must match safety standards.
  • Domestic Uses
A number of household and kitchen accessories are enhanced, using silicone. Non-stick, sturdy and durable cookware is manufactured using a silicone coating, which greatly improves the cooking experience.
  • FDA compliance
FDA compliant Silicone is suitable for medical, pharmaceutical and food processing industries or anywhere that a ‘clean room’ application is required. It can be used in applications where contact with food is a primary factor.
  • Industrial Production Processes
Due to its many impressive properties, silicone is an integral part of manufacturing processes for a number of products, as it also increases the scope for innovative production techniques.
  • Paints and Adhesives
Known for its adhesive and pigmentation qualities, silicone greatly enhances the quality of paints and sealants. It also provides better resistance against weather changes and most kinds of stains.
In addition to all of its applications, affordable silicone rubber prices make it even more valuable and indispensable in day-to-day life.

Natural rubber & Synthetic rubbers

图片
Natural rubber Natural Rubber - Solid state Natural rubber is made from a runny, milky white liquid called  latex  that oozes from certain plants when you cut into them. (Common dandelions, for example, produce latex; if you snap off their stems, you can see the latex dripping out from them. In theory, there's no reason why we couldn't make rubber by growing dandelions, though we'd need an awful lot of them. Although there are something like 200 plants in the world that produce latex, over 99 percent of the world's natural rubber is made from the latex that comes from a tree species called  Hevea brasiliensis , widely known as the rubber tree . This latex is about one third water and one third rubber particles held in a form known as a  colloidal  suspension. Natural rubber is a polymer of isoprene (also known as 2-methylbuta-1,3-diene) with the chemical formula (C 5 H 8 )n. To put it more simply, it's made of many thousands of basic C 5 H 8 units (the mon

Types of Liquid Silicone Rubber

图片
Silicone rubbers are man-made polymer materials that have a wide range of industrial and manufacturing applications. The various types of silicone rubbers include room temperature vulcanize, liquid silicone, fluorosilicone and high-consistency rubber. In this post, we’ll provide information about liquid silicone rubber, including what it is and the types that are available for manufacturing purposes. WHAT IS LIQUID SILICONE RUBBER? Liquid silicone rubber (LSR) is classified as an elastomer, which means it possesses exceptional elasticity (ability to resume its normal shape after stretching). Key LSR attributes include hardness, tensile strength (resistance to break under tension) and compression set. Other LSR characteristics include excellent bacteria resistance and hydrophobicity, meaning that it acts as a water repellent. The two liquid silicone rubber types include food grade and medical grade. WHAT IS FOOD GRADE LSR? Food grade liquid silicone rubber is well-suited for

An Introduction About Plastic And Marrin Litter

Plastic is present everywhere around us – its durability, low cost, light weight and easily modified shape and properties has led to almost exponential increase in production since its large-scale manufacturing started in 1950s. Nowadays the global annual production of plastics exceeds 311 million tons and it is expected to rise year after year. Plastic is a synthetic material consisting of polymers, which form the basic structure of plastic. This structure can be modified to fulfil different needs by using additives that for example improve the flexibility or strength of the material. The wide variety of different plastics have their unique properties which make them suitable for different applications, e.g. packaging or insulation. Marine litter includes all anthropogenic material that has been entered the marine environment by intentional or unintentional actions of human beings. The composition of marine litter varies between locations, but usually most of the litter consists of p
