The resistance to oil, solvents, and chemical media is another major "treasure" of fluorosilicone rubber compounds. In daily life, oil stains such as gasoline and engine oil can easily corrode ordinary rubber products, while fluorosilicone rubber compound can be "non-toxic". In the automotive industry, engines generate a large amount of oil pollution during operation. Oil seals and sealing rings made of fluorosilicone rubber can effectively block oil pollution and extend the service life of the engine; In the petrochemical industry, various corrosive chemicals frequently come into contact with equipment. Seals made of fluorosilicone rubber are like sturdy shields, protecting equipment from corrosion and reducing maintenance and replacement costs.
Good strength and resilience enable fluorosilicone rubber compound to perform excellently in mechanical seals. Imagine a seal being constantly squeezed and stretched during use, and if it lacks sufficient strength, it is easily damaged; Without good resilience, it is impossible to tightly fit the gaps. Fluorine silicon rubber compound can quickly restore its original state after countless deformations, ensuring the sealing effect. For example, in the shock absorption system of a car, it can effectively cushion vibrations while maintaining sealing to prevent liquid leakage.
The characteristics of good insulation and selective breathability have further expanded the application fields of fluorosilicone rubber compounds. In electrical equipment, good insulation performance can prevent leakage and ensure electrical safety; In the field of healthcare, the selective breathability feature allows it to be applied to medical devices, which can block bacteria and viruses while allowing necessary gas exchange, safeguarding the health of patients.
