Silicone strips are mainly used in industries such as industry, medicine, and food, playing a role in dust prevention, insect prevention, waterproofing, fixation, sound insulation, shock absorption, and sealing. The sealing strip produced by silicone rubber has a transparent and smooth appearance, is soft, elastic, non-toxic, and odorless. It has good elasticity (Shaw 35-75 degrees), resistance to high and low temperatures (-80 ℃ -280 ℃), and is not prone to aging, deformation, and slight acid and alkali resistance.
1. In order to avoid prolonged direct sunlight, the aging of silicone is fatal due to strong sunlight. Silicone is generally black and has strong heat absorption ability, which can cause an increase in temperature. Therefore, its physical properties will change, and the direct result is softening.
2. To avoid high-temperature environments, as mentioned earlier, direct sunlight can cause high-temperature deformation. Another hazard of high temperature is that it can cause the silicone to melt.
3. The storage environment for silicone strips used for glass edging should be kept dry, which is also an important factor in preventing their aging.
