For consumers who do not understand the silicone material, the physical hardness of silicone rubber products may produce an ill-informed mind, the size of the product is the same without too much change, and the relationship between the formula and various physical properties is not complete to understand, all kinds of silicone, rubber and other material raw materials have its hardness and softness characteristics, natural silicone products are no exception, So why silicone material can be used in all walks of life in the world, because of its excellent hardness!
Different silicone products have its unique performance and process requirements, such as silicone silicone seals, silicone accessories, etc., can choose the most suitable polymer and match and reasonable deployment, in the hardness and softness to achieve close adhesion sealing shock absorption, waterproof oil and other effects, and hard and soft physical properties are still closely related to the formula and raw materials of the product. The debugging of the formula can try out various performance differences and functions, so the hardness and softness debugging still need to be careful, otherwise the hardness and softness errors are likely to cause inevitable trouble!
We all know that silicone material has good tensile strength, and the tensile strength of the index depends on the degree of hardness and softness of the product, silicone rubber products manufacturers generally the hardness of the manufacturer is about 20-80 degrees, the lower the hardness of the product tensile strength is better, generally can reach about 300%, the minimum is about 20%, However, it still depends on the structure and shape of the silicone product.
Silicone material is indispensable this is the tearing strength, silicone rubber material will be due to force and other factors and tear phenomenon, this is one of the inevitable phenomena of all rubber, and cracks and cracks caused by force cracking phenomenon occupy a minority, because silicone rubber with conventional hardness basically no tear rupture phenomenon, Materials with higher hardness are likely to tear due to the diffusion of the crack mouth!
Therefore, the tensile force and hardness of silicone products are important indicators of the material, silicone processing manufacturers in the vulcanization production procedures, the greater the silicon molecular weight of the compound, the greater the effective cross-linking fixed elongation stress. In order to obtain the specified constant elongation stress, the crosslinking density of the material with small molecular weight can be appropriately increased. Any structural factor that increases intermolecular forces. Increasing the density of silica gel material can prevent the hardness of the product from affecting the tensile strength of the product!
