Understanding the application of silicone rubber in rubber rollers

Mondo Technology Updated on 2024-01-28

Silicone rubber is a kind of special compound rubber, which has the advantages of environmental protection, high and low temperature resistance, aging resistance, good resilience, low compression set and good processing performance. Whereas, rubber rollers refer to rollers made of rubber. The common raw materials of rubber rollers are silicone rubber, nitrile rubber, ternary isopropylene rubber, and polyurethane rubber. Among them, silicone rubber is more and more widely used in rubber rollers due to its own advantages.

Silicone rubber can be divided into high-temperature silicone rubber and room-temperature vulcanized silicone rubber according to the vulcanization temperature. Both silicone rubbers are used in rubber rollers. Among them, the application of silicone rubber compound in high-temperature silicone rubber is the mainstream, and most of the silicone rollers are made of silicone rubber compound. In addition, the injection molding liquid silicone rubber in high-temperature silicone is used to make printing rubber rollers, which is mainly due to its good resilience, easy processing, and mass production after mold opening. Room temperature vulcanized silicone rubber can be used to make plastic film liquid silicone rollers and leather embossed liquid silicone rollers.

In general, due to its low compression permanent non-deformation, high temperature resistance and good processing performance, silicone rubber can be used for various printing charging rollers, conductive rollers, electrostatic rollers, pressure rollers, and paper feeding rollers, as well as paper rollers, die rollers, corona rollers, sticky dust rollers, embossing rollers and so on.
