What is organosilicon silicone gel?
Jan 31,2024 Hanast
The silicone gel used in the industrial field is not singular and is divided into two types based on the material: organic silicone and inorganic silicone. The performance and application range vary depending on the type. For example, inorganic silicone has a wider range of applications and has gained recognition from many users. So, what is organosilicon silicone gel? What are the characteristics of silicone gel?
What is organosilicon gel?
This is an adhesive composed of silicon-oxygen chains, which are formed when the side chains are connected to other organic groups through silicon atoms. Therefore, this adhesive contains both inorganic structural components and organic functional groups, making it more complex. Because of its unique structure and outstanding performance, it can be used in industrial fields.
What are the characteristics of silicone gel?
1. Good temperature resistance. Containing an appropriate amount of C-C bond energy and Si-O bond energy can greatly improve the thermal stability of the adhesive itself. Even when working at high temperatures, it will not easily break or decompose. Please use it with confidence. This adhesive can not only resist high temperatures but also low temperatures, and its chemical and physical properties will change with temperature. Collaborating with capable suppliers provides greater peace of mind.
2. Good weather resistance. Organic silicon gel contains no double bonds, which can effectively resist UV and ozone and cannot be easily decomposed. During the working process, it's thermal stability and weather resistance are stronger. Generally speaking, working in a natural environment can last for decades.
3. Excellent electrical insulation. This adhesive can withstand voltage and corona, has a high flame retardant level, and its electrical properties are almost unaffected by temperature and frequency. Stable electrical insulation materials were used during production, greatly improving this performance.
4. At the same time, silicone gel also has excellent water repellency, which can be used normally even in humid environments.
