Do you know the reason why silicone products have long lifespan?

Let JWTRUBBER tell you.

Silicone products are almost everywhere in daily life, it is found that the lifespan of silicone products is amazing, even can be described as “tough”. Take silicone phone shell as an example, it is something that need to be used every day, even every moment, when the time it would be out, is it broken? No yet, just due to the old style or some other reasons, seldom , even never, due to broken. Researches show that common silicone products usually have a lifespan of 3-5 years, some high-end silicone parts like audio accessories, silicone gaskets can be used more than 10 years. 

Why silicone products have long lifespan? This is owe to the strengths of silicone rubber:

1.High-temperature resistance: Applicable temperature range -40-230℃, can be used in microwave and oven. Many tableware can be put in the microwave or oven are made of silicone rubber.

2.Easy to clean: Silicone products just need simple rinse with water to restore clean, and can not be battered even cleaned by machine.

3.Stability: Silicone rubber itself has stable chemical properties, therefore, silicone products have a longer life compared with products made of other materials.

4.Tear resistance: Silicone products itself has excellent flexibility, would not deform under high strength pulling.

5.Insulating properties: Silicone rubber has high resistivity, and its resistance can remain stable over a wide range of temperature and frequency. Besides, Silicone rubber has good resistance to high voltage corona discharge and arc discharge, such as high voltage insulators, TV high voltage caps, electrical parts and so on.

Although silicone products have a long lifespan, we still need to maintain well in daily life, to make them better work. The lifespan of silicone products can be reduce due to wrong work way, also the performance may be declined. The situation long time in the sun, humidity, rain or immersion in water will accelerate the aging process of silicone products, which seriously affect the service life of silicone rubber, silicone products should be avoided in a bad environment for a long time.
