Application of silicone products in daily life
Jul 21, 2020
Silicone, also known as polysiloxane, is a polymer that contains a series of synthetic compounds composed of repeating units of siloxane, these units are alternating silicon and oxygen atoms with carbon, hydrogen and other elements. combination. Silicone is also an elastomer with good tensile and tear resistance properties.
Silicone is generally considered a safe material, but many people still have questions about its safety. To answer these questions, you should know what silicone is and its source. In our daily lives, we can easily find silicone products in some other consumer products such as cosmetics and medical equipment. Silicone can also be used as a basic sealant to prevent water and air penetration. There are many different types of silicone products, mostly in the form of "safe", "natural" and "non-toxic" to inform consumers.
Medical and baby care products made of silicone rubber feel comfortable to the touch and have the effect of inhibiting bacteria after disinfection. Silicone rubber also contains a high proportion of antioxidants and antibacterial properties, which is why they are widely used in medical equipment, cosmetics and food.
The shielding properties of silicone rubber can protect electronic components from rust, pollution, moisture and heat.
Inorganic polymers (such as silicone rubber) are used to cover electrical safety spikes. Polydimethylsiloxane (an inorganic polymer) can also be used in the construction industry because it can be used as an anti-blocking agent, antibacterial and antifungal agent.
In the construction industry, silicone rubber and inorganic polymer products are used for door and window sealing strips. MQ silicone resin is a kind of silicone resin with unique structure and excellent performance. Its filler is reinforced with silicone rubber and foam and anti-sticking agent. Generally, silicone resins have higher heat resistance than organic resins, and have high dielectric strength and water resistance.
Currently, the core of silicone products can be divided into three main types: silicone gel, silicone rubber and silicone polyurethane.
Silicone oil is commonly used as a lubricant and can be added to cosmetics such as conditioners and shampoos. Silicone can also be used to produce rubber and waterproof sealants for toilet windows, pipes and roofs. Silicon is used to produce silicone oil, which is chemically sprayed to form methyl groups, forming polymers that adhere to the surface of the oil, such as polyethylene glycol and polystyrene.
Since silicone can be formulated to have insulation and conductivity, it is suitable for a wide range of electrical applications. Silicone is a good insulator, so it is used to make electrical enclosures.
Silicone can also be made into rubber sheets, which has the advantage of complying with FDA, and can also be used in industrial applications that require airtight sealing. The use of silicone in sheets involves industries that require hygiene, such as cleaning, cleaning and cleaning products. Silicone and rubber can also be used in the manufacture of medical devices that require hermetic sealing to protect patients.
Elastomeric silicon is commonly used as a material in the structure of many other commodities, but in the medical field, it is necessary to manufacture medical devices such as blood pressure monitors, heart monitors, and other medical devices.
TPE stands for thermoplastic elastomer, also known as thermoplastic or rubber, and it can be used for many other materials, such as polystyrene, polyethylene, and polypropylene. Silicone (polysiloxane) is a material that can handle various polymers from polycarbonate to polyurethane. It is commonly used as a hot phosphate in the structure of many different materials, especially for the production of hot air.
In short, people find that silicone is getting closer and closer to our lives. It can be found in all areas of daily life, and the attention is getting higher and higher.
