Silicone Rubber
Tech-Link Silicones Co. Ltd. specializes in both general-purpose and custom-formula silicone rubber for different project requests.
Silicone Rubber
Tech-Link supplies different forms of silicone rubber (solid and liquid) for different applications. Liquid silicone is good for coating & injection while and solid silicone is perfect for molding and extrusion.
Properties of Silicone Rubber
Flame Retardant
Silicone rubber exhibits high thermal stability.
High Tensile Strength
Depending on the formulation and manufacturing process, silicone rubber exhibits tensile strength from 200 to 1,500 psi.
UV & Radiation Resistance
Silicone rubber will not degrade with repeated or prolonged exposure to UV or other types of radiation.
Excellent Compression
It could retain its shape under high levels of repeated or extended compression and extreme temperatures.
Silicone Rubber: What is it and What's the Use of it?
Silicone rubber is an elastomer (rubber-like material) composed of silicone—itself a polymer—containing silicon together with carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
It is mainly for highly purified silicone rubber for insulating tape, sealant, varnish, lubricants, keyboards, and housings
It mainly for producing vibration and weather resistant parts as well as coatings and varnishes.
silicone rubber can be found in tubing, adhesives, and defoamers.
Silicone rubber is widely applied for anti-stick bakeware, food containers, utensils, toys, and jewelry including silicone rubber band bracelets. However, it can also act as an ingredient in shampoo, laundry soap, cosmetics, and deodorant.
Silicone Rubber Manufacturing Process
Silicone rubber is an elastomer (rubber-like material) composed of silicone—itself a polymer—containing silicon together with carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
Kneading
Kneading is the process of manually mixing your dough to form gluten strands by folding it over on itself and pressing down on it.
Vulcanization
Vulcanization is a chemical process where a material such as rubber is heated with a catalyst (e.g. asbestos or copper) to form a more durable product.
Packing
Our silicone rubber items are packed in an insensitive fabric plastic bag with an outer carton box that can withstand the weight of the silicones.
