We are at Global Polymer Summit 2026 – Visit Us at Booth #753! **Published: September, 2026** Global Polymer Summit 2026 (GPS 2026), one of the North America’s most influential events for rubber, elastomer and polymer industries, is coming soon in Louisville, Kentucky. This outstanding industry gathering brings together raw‑material suppliers, component manufacturers, technical engineers, purchasing …
With EV penetration past 50%, 800V fast charging and hydrogen mobility going mainstream, an unassuming silicone hose is becoming the “critical blood vessel” of vehicle safety and performance. On a vehicle, the silicone rubber hose has long been a “low-profile supporting actor”—unobtrusive yet everywhere: the turbocharger intake pipe, the engine coolant hose, the wire-harness sleeve, …

I. Industry Transformation: How EVs Are Reshaping the Global Automotive Supply Chain The global automotive industry is undergoing a once-in-a-century transformation. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), global electric vehicle sales exceeded 20 million units in 2025, a 20% year-on-year increase, accounting for one-quarter of all new car sales worldwide. Global EV production approached …
1. Requirements for Extrusion-Grade Silicone Compounds 1.1 Formulation Specifications Plasticity range: 200～280; Die swell controlled at 10%～25% Reinforcing filler: Fumed nano silica is preferred. Precipitated silica contains high moisture and tends to cause foaming during hot-air vulcanization, not recommended for high-end food-grade tubing. Structure control agent: Hydroxyl silicone oil is the first choice for platinum-cured …
I. Detailed Comparison of Main Materials 1. Conductive Silicone Rubber Base Material: Methyl Vinyl Silicone Rubber (VMQ). Platinum curing is preferred; common hardness ranges from 30~50 Shore A. Advantages Excellent temperature resistance: -60～180℃. No hardening under thermal cycling, suitable for vehicle-mounted equipment, coffee machines and industrial devices. Inherent sealing performance, easily achieving …

I. Application Scenarios Suitable for household and commercial semi-automatic & fully automatic coffee machines, divided into three types of pipelines: Cold water inlet pipes and preheating water delivery hoses for boilers High-temperature hot water extraction pipes (90–100℃) High-pressure steam milk frothing tubes for steam (120–180℃ high-temperature steam) II. Core Materials & Manufacturing Standards Raw material: …
1. Ultra-wide temperature resistance, outperforming standard rubber at both high and low temperatures Continuous service temperature ranges from -60°C to 180°C, and modified grades can withstand up to 250°C; most conventional rubbers only operate stably between -30°C and 80°C. It resists softening, melting and cracking under high heat, while common rubbers rapidly harden, degrade or …

Properties of Silicone Rubber Raw Materials for Wires and Cables Wire and cable silicone rubber is mainly based on VMQ methyl vinyl silicone rubber, featuring an inorganic Si-O-Si backbone structure, which distinguishes it from carbon-chain rubber and plastics such as PVC, PE and EPDM. It falls into two main categories: HTV high-temperature vulcanized compound silicone …

There is a certain relationship between the quality of silicone rubber raw material and its transparency, but they are not absolutely equivalent. Detailed analysis is as follows: 1. Transparency can reflect some quality indicators Silicone rubber with high purity and few impurities (e.g., fumed silica-reinforced) typically has higher transparency, appearing bright and clear without haze …
