Silicone rubber has been widely used in the biomedical field due to its non-toxic and odorless properties, excellent physiological inertness, and good biocompatibility. Silicone rubber is widely used in the production of medical devices and implants, such as artificial heart valves, vascular stents, breast implants, etc. In addition, silicone rubber is also used to make various medical devices such as catheters and drainage tubes, as well as auxiliary tools for surgical procedures.
Silicone rubber is a high molecular weight elastic material composed of alternating silicon and oxygen atoms in the main chain, with two organic groups usually attached to the silicon atoms. It has many excellent properties, such as high heat resistance and excellent cold resistance, and can maintain elasticity in the range of -100 β to 350 β. Silicone rubber also has good electrical insulation properties, especially when it is damp or subjected to temperature changes, its insulation ability is almost unaffected. In addition, silicone rubber has excellent resistance to ozone, light, and atmospheric aging, as well as good oil and solvent resistance.
Silicone rubber has a wide range of applications, including electrical insulation, sealing materials, cable accessories, composite insulators, anti fouling flash coatings, and thermal conductive silicone rubber. In the electrical industry, silicone rubber is commonly used in the manufacturing of insulation layers for electrical equipment such as wires and cables, transformers, and motors. At the same time, silicone rubber is also used to make seals for electronic and electrical products, such as waterproof seals for mobile phones, cameras, and other devices.
The application of silicone rubber in the biomedical field is not limited to the production of medical devices and implants, but also used in drug delivery systems and tissue engineering. Silicone rubber, as a drug carrier, can achieve controlled and sustained release of drugs, improving their efficacy and safety. Meanwhile, silicone rubber also serves as a scaffold material for tissue engineering, providing a suitable environment for cell growth and differentiation.
