Fluorosilicone, especially fluorosilicone rubber, is a high-performance elastomeric material with the characteristics of high and low temperature resistance, oil resistance, chemical reagent resistance, solvent resistance, radiation resistance and excellent electrical properties. These characteristics make fluorosilicone an ideal base material for high-performance coatings and coatings.
2. Application of Fluorosilicone in High-Performance Coatings
Anti-pollution flashover coating:
Fluorosilicone rubber anti-pollution flashover coating is based on fluorosilicone rubber and is prepared by adding fillers, structure control agents, vulcanizers, modified additives and other components.
The coating has the advantages of good weather resistance, good anti-pollution, anti-ultraviolet radiation, good durability, etc., and is particularly suitable for long-term outdoor use.
In the power industry, fluorosilicone rubber anti-pollution flashover coating is widely used on the surface of insulators of transmission lines to improve its anti-pollution flashover performance and ensure the safe operation of the power system.
Fluorosilicone modified low surface functional coating:
Fluorosilicone modified low surface functional coating combines the excellent properties of fluorocarbon coating and siloxane coating, and has the characteristics of weather resistance, corrosion resistance and self-cleaning.
Through modification technology, the coating further optimizes the adhesion and wettability on low surface energy materials.
In the aerospace field, the coating is widely used in the coating treatment of aircraft shells and satellite surfaces to resist the erosion of cosmic rays and space debris and extend the service life of aircraft.
In the construction industry, it can adhere to various complex surfaces to form a tough and durable protective film, effectively resisting wind and rain erosion and ultraviolet radiation, while reducing the adhesion of dust and pollutants.
3. Application of fluorosilicone in high-performance coatings
Sealing coating:
Fluorosilicone can be used to prepare various sealing coatings, such as static sealing and dynamic sealing coatings.
