Silicone is widely used and critical in the protection of rubber products, mainly in terms of improving material properties, enhancing adhesion, and extending service life. The details are as follows:


1. Directly used as a rubber material
Silicone rubber: Silicone rubber is composed of silicone material and rubber, which has excellent high temperature resistance and oil resistance, and is suitable for automobiles, machinery and other fields.In a high temperature environment, silicone rubber can maintain good physical properties and has good resistance to oils, solvents, etc., and can be used in the manufacture of high-temperature seals, insulation parts, hose diaphragms, etc.


Silicone rubber leather: In outdoor equipment, silicone rubber leather has properties such as stain resistance and easy to clean, waterproof, non-slip, wear-resistant, aging-resistant and UV-resistant.Its surface is smooth and not easy to adhere to dirt, and can be easily wiped clean with water;


Excellent waterproof performance can prevent moisture from penetrating into the interior of the material; excellent aging resistance allows it to maintain its appearance and performance after long-term use, and is suitable for outdoor shoes, tents and other equipment.


2. As an additive or modifier for rubber products
Silane crosslinked rubber: It is formed by crosslinking silicone materials with rubber. It has excellent oxidation resistance and wear resistance. It is widely used in automobiles, tires, rubber pipes and other fields. It is environmentally friendly, non-toxic and odorless.


Silane modified rubber: formed by the modification of silicone materials and rubber, it has the characteristics of oxidation resistance, wear resistance, UV resistance and hydrolysis resistance. It is suitable for automobiles, tires, rubber pipes and other fields.


Silane sub-crosslinked rubber: Formed by the cross-linking of silicone materials and rubber sub-crosslinked, it has anti-aging and wear-resistant properties. It is also used in automobiles, tires, rubber pipes and other fields, and has environmental protection advantages.


Silicone thickeners: In the production of rubber products, adding silicone thickeners can significantly improve the adhesion strength of rubber to metals, plastics and other materials, and enhance tear resistance and durability.For example, in tire manufacturing, the adhesion of tires to carcass materials can be improved and the service life can be extended.


3. As an auxiliary material for rubber products
Silicone resin: Can be used as a vulcanizing agent for silicone rubber to improve the product's high and low temperature resistance, oil resistance and corrosion resistance;


As a modifier to improve the processing properties, heat resistance and weather resistance of silicone rubber; as a sealant, it is used in automobiles, home appliances, and construction fields.;


As an adhesive to connect rubber with plastics, metals and other materials; as a coating to improve wear resistance and corrosion resistance; as a fiber reinforced material matrix or insulating layer to improve product strength and insulating properties.


Silicone grease: It can be used for the lubrication of rubber seals such as automobile brake systems to reduce friction and wear, prevent the aging and failure of seals, and ensure the sealing and stability of the system.
