In many industrial and electronic applications, standard methyl silicone rubber performs well under normal conditions.
However, when exposed to low temperatures, corrosive media, or harsh operating environments, conventional silicone materials may show limitations.
Loss of flexibility, reduced sealing performance, and material degradation can become critical issues, especially in demanding applications.
Challenges of Standard Silicone Rubber in Harsh Environments
Typical methyl silicone rubber is known for its general thermal stability, but it may encounter problems such as:
Reduced elasticity at low temperatures
Limited resistance to corrosive chemicals or aggressive media
Performance instability in long-term harsh environments
For applications where low-temperature flexibility and chemical resistance are essential, material selection becomes especially important.
Phenyl Silicone Rubber as an Effective Material Solution
Phenyl silicone rubber is modified by introducing phenyl groups into the polymer structure, which significantly improves performance under specific conditions.
Compared with standard silicone rubber, phenyl silicone rubber offers:
Improved flexibility at low temperatures
Enhanced resistance to corrosion and aggressive media
Better long-term stability in demanding environments
Reliable electrical insulation properties
While its high-temperature resistance is generally comparable to conventional silicone rubber, phenyl silicone rubber is particularly valued for its low-temperature and corrosion-resistant performance.
