Special silicone is a type of silicone rubber material with special properties. According to different functions and application requirements, it can be mainly divided into the following categories:
- Anti-static Silicone
Characteristics: Surface resistance of 10~10Ω, with excellent anti-static properties.
Applications: Widely used in manufacturing anti-static products such as suction cups, rubber rollers, buttons, sealing rings, mobile phone cases, game controllers, and electronic component trays. Some models also feature flame retardancy, high/low-temperature resistance, high rebound, or foaming functions.
- High-Temperature Resistant Silicone
Characteristics: Divided into two types—resistant to 300°C and 350°C—maintaining shape stability, anti-aging, and good elasticity under prolonged high temperatures.
Applications: Suitable for oven sealing strips, high-temperature protective sleeves, and electronic component trays in high-temperature environments.
- High-Temperature Flame-Retardant Silicone
Characteristics: Resistant to 250°C and meets the UL-94V0 flame-retardant standard (U.S.).
Applications: Used in products with strict safety requirements, such as wire/cable sheaths and fireproof seals.
- Flame-Retardant Foam Silicone
Characteristics: Foaming ratio up to 300%, forming soft elastic materials after vulcanization.
Applications: Used for flexible products like mannequins, shoe insoles, anti-slip mats, and wire/cable sheaths.
- Low-Temperature Resistant Silicone
Characteristics: Resistant to -70°C, with high tear strength and resistance to yellowing.
Applications: Ideal for cold storage sealing strips and ultra-low-temperature protective sleeves in frigid environments.
- Conductive Silicone
Characteristics: Surface resistivity of 0.5~2000Ω·cm, with customizable conductivity.
Applications: Used in zebra strips, conductive pen tips, shielding materials, and conductive watch straps for electronic components.
- Liquid Silicone
Characteristics: Includes flame-retardant foam and mold silicone, with excellent flowability for easy shaping.
Applications: Employed in precision molds, medical devices, and complex-shaped products.
Other Special Categories
Transparent Silicone: Fully transparent, used in medical devices and baby bottle nipples requiring high cleanliness.
Diode Silicone: Divided into ketoxime- and alcohol-release types, specialized for diode encapsulation.
Medical Silicone: Biocompatible, suitable for medical device manufacturing.
Key Application Fields
Special silicone is widely applied in electronics, aerospace, medical, and automotive industries, including seals, insulators, conductive components, and medical devices.
