In the field of materials science, fire-resistant and flame-retardant liquid silicone rubber is becoming a core material in high-end manufacturing, new energy, building safety and other fields due to its unique performance combination. As an innovative polymer material that combines the flexibility of elastomers with the flame retardancy of inorganic materials, its research and application not only push the boundaries of material technology, but also provide key support for the safe development of human society.
Fireproof and flame-retardant liquid silicone rubber, with polysiloxane as the main chain structure, achieves a dual breakthrough in intrinsic flame retardancy and excellent physical properties by introducing special flame retardants and cross-linking systems. The high bond energy of silicon oxygen bonds endows materials with natural heat resistance, with a decomposition temperature of over 350 ℃. The addition of aluminum hydroxide, phosphorus nitrogen synergistic flame retardants, or nano montmorillonite can form a ceramicized carbon layer at high temperatures, effectively isolating oxygen and heat transfer. This material not only has a low viscosity formula and is suitable for precision processing techniques such as dispensing and injection molding, but also has adjustable Shore hardness, high tensile strength, and ultra long elongation at break, as well as excellent environmental adaptability, which can maintain stability in a wide temperature range of -60 ℃ to 250 ℃. In addition, it has also passed multiple international environmental and safety certifications.
With the continuous evolution of technology, the research and development of fire-resistant and flame-retardant liquid silicone rubber is focusing on efficient composite flame-retardant systems, 3D printing specific formulas, and intelligent responsive materials. By encapsulating flame retardants in nanoparticles through microencapsulation technology, not only does it improve flame retardant efficiency, but it also reduces material density. At the same time, the paste like system developed for 3D printing technology has achieved integrated molding of complex structural components with an accuracy of up to ± 0.1mm. The intelligent responsive material embedded in graphene/phase change material microcapsules can actively absorb heat and cool down when overheated, delaying the process of thermal runaway and providing a higher level of safety protection for high-risk areas such as new energy batteries.
