This video explains what liquid silicone rubber (or LSR) is, and some of its main uses in industry and products or components. • Silicone rubber is sought after as a production material as it is generally non-reactive, stable, and resistant to extremes. As a kind of rubber, it can be molded into many shapes and so we see it used in all kinds of applications and products. • These include: • Medical products • Babycare items • Food contact products • Automotive • Tubes used for wiring • O-rings seals • Molded custom shapes and designs, such as a muffin trays • Apparel • Electronics • Silicone rubber is a very adhesive gel until it is somehow 'cured,' 'vulcanized,' or 'catalyzed' using different processes, which is when it will take on a solid state. It may also be injection molded to achieve that, too. • We'll also look at some key areas where silicone rubber is superior to organic rubber at extreme temperatures, such as: • Elongation • Creep • Cyclic flexing • Tear strength • Fire resistance • Tensile strength • We go on to explore the special grades of silicone rubber, including hardness levels and different resistance types. • ________________________________________________________________________ • Watch the rest of these silicone material videos in this playlist: • Silicone Rubber (Common Production Ma... • If you have any questions regarding producing YOUR silicone components or products or just need experienced help, feel free to contact us over at Sofeast: https://www.sofeast.com/contact-us/ • You may also like to learn more about the other materials processes that we're experienced in working with on this page: https://www.sofeast.com/resources/mat... • And also, the products that we are expert in here: https://www.sofeast.com/resources/pro...
