Fluorosilicone oil is widely used in synthetic rubber and resin industry. The following is a specific analysis and explanation:
1. Application in synthetic rubber industry
Preparation of fluorosilicone rubber
Fluorosilicone oil can be used as base oil or structure control agent to participate in the preparation process of fluorosilicone rubber. It can combine with rubber molecules through addition reaction, thereby improving the performance of fluorosilicone rubber.
Performance improvement
Enhance adhesion: Fluorosilicone oil can react chemically with rubber molecules to improve the adhesion of rubber to other materials and make rubber products more solid.
Improve wear resistance: Fluorosilicone oil can form a protective film on the surface of rubber products, thereby improving the wear resistance and corrosion resistance of rubber products.
Plasticizing effect: Fluorosilicone oil can relax the cross-linking structure between rubber molecules, reduce the hardness of rubber and increase its elasticity.
As an auxiliary agent
Fluorosilicone oil can be used as a demoulding agent, isolation agent, brightener, etc. in the processing of rubber products, which helps to smoothly demould rubber products and improve production efficiency.
2. Application in the resin industry
Toughening effect
Fluorosilicone oil can introduce some flexible segments to toughen the resin system. This helps to improve the toughness of the resin and make it more durable when facing external impact.
Improving surface properties
Fluorosilicone oil has the characteristics of low surface tension and can improve the surface properties of the resin. For example, it can improve the hydrophobicity and oil resistance of the resin surface, thereby broadening the application field of the resin.
Preparation of composite materials
Fluorosilicone oil can also be used in combination with other materials to prepare composite materials with special properties. For example, the introduction of fluorosilicone segments in epoxy resin can form a composite surface layer with excellent hydrophobic properties.
3. Application advantages
Chemical stability
Fluorosilicone oil can remain stable in various harsh chemical environments and will not fail due to environmental changes. This enables it to be widely used in the synthetic rubber and resin industry.
High and low temperature resistance
Fluorosilicone oil has the characteristics of high and low temperature resistance and can be used in a wide temperature range. This enables it to meet the temperature range requirements of different industrial fields.
Environmentally friendly and safe
Fluorosilicone oil is usually non-toxic and harmless, and will not pollute the environment or harm human health. This meets the requirements of modern industry for environmental protection and safety.
