What are the hazards of silicone products?

Silicone products are not harmful, and silica gel itself is not harmful. Silicone rubber has good biocompatibility, is non-irritating to human tissues, non-toxic, non-allergic and has minimal body rejection.

It has good physical and chemical properties. It can maintain its original elasticity and softness when in contact with body fluids and tissues and will not be degraded. It is a fairly stable inert substance. It can withstand high temperatures and can be sterilized. It is easy to process and shape, easy to process and carve shapes, and easy to use.

Extended information

Uses of silicone products:

1. Silicone products are indispensable for making copiers, keyboards, electronic dictionaries, remote controls, toys, silicone buttons, etc. components.

2. It can be used to make durable molded gaskets, packaging materials for electronic accessories, and maintenance materials for automotive electronic accessories.

3. It can be used to make electronic components and mold high-point insulators.

4. It can be used to make conductive silica gel, medical silica gel, foam silica gel, molding silica gel, etc.

5. Used in sealing projects such as house construction and repair, highway joint sealing, bridge sealing, etc.

6. Can be used for baby products, maternal and infant products, baby bottles, and bottle protective covers.

Types of silicone products:

1. Molded silicone

Molded silicone products pass through a high-temperature mold and then pass through the vulcanization machine after placing the solid silicone raw material with vulcanizing agent added. Pressure is applied and the sulfur is solidified at high temperature. The hardness of the molded silicone is usually between 30°C and 70°C.

2. Extruded silicone

Extruded silicone products are formed by extruding silicone through an extrusion machine. Generally, the shape of extruded silicone is long strips, and tubular ones can be cut at will. However, Extruded silicone has limitations in its shape and is widely used in medical devices and food machinery.

3. Liquid silicone

Liquid silicone products are spray-molded through silicone injection molding. The product is soft and the hardness can reach 10°-40°. Because of its soft characteristics, it can be used in simulated human organs. , medical silicone breast pads, etc. are widely used.
