Types of Silicone Rubber and Basic Features

Silicone Rubber products can run a large amount of electric power system, and this should thanks largely to its excellent water repellency, water repellency and stain-resistant flash capability. Current products on the market, mainly as the following three categories:

Room Temperature Vulacanized Silicone Rubber (RTV Silicone Rubber):

This kind of Silicone Rubber has excellent hydrophobic properties and contamination resistance properties, hardness is low, but because of the RTV, and various aspects of mechanical properties and resistance erosion ability is poor, aging is worse.

Room Temperature Vulacanized Silicone Rubber is with room temperature curing, good mobility, forming process is simple and can operate on the spot.

High Temperature Vulcanized Silicone Rubber (HTV Silicone Rubber):

This kind of Silicone Rubber has the resistance to aging, resistance to tracking and erosion, water repellent, stain proof, fire retardant, ozone resistant, UV resistant, dampness resistant, resistant to high and low temperature and tearing strength of character.

High Temperature Vulcanized Silicone Rubber is with 140 to 180℃ high temperature curing, poor mobility, special shapes or large equipment moulding process complex. Oxidant gas production and retained in the product, and mold corrosion.

Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR):

This kind of Silicone Rubber is with all the advantages of High Temperature Vulcanized Silicone Rubber, it has excellent properties on technological properties of the proof tracking, high and low temperature resistance and hydrophobic properties and so on.

Liquid Silicone Rubber is with 90 to 140℃ curing, good flowability, components directly in the Silicone Rubber of Platinum catalysts, two-component mixed crosslinked, forming process is simple. Particularly suitable for external insulation of large equipment, and no damage to mould.
