What is the difference between silicone and rubber

The difference between silicone and plastic:\x0d\1, non-toxic and odorless: silicone is not, most of the plastic; \x0d\2, physiological inertia, chemical stability: silicone is high, plastic is general; \x0d\3, environmentally friendly and biodegradable: silicone can be, the plastic can not be; \x0d\4, aging resistance, service life: silicone can be, the plastic can not be; \x0d\5, soft / pliable: silicone is superior, plastic Poor; \x0d\6, anti-slip, shockproof, elasticity, insulation, tear-resistant degree, anti-color fading: silicone superior, plastic poor; \x0d\7, temperature resistance::: silicone resistance to high and low temperatures (-40 ℃ - 230 ℃), plastic (100-150 ℃) \x0d\8, combustion performance: silicone is not flammable, will not produce harmful substances, plastic is flammable, produce harmful substances;
