How do we distinguish the fake and genuine silicone, and the quality of silicone?

With the rapid development of the silicone products industry, there are more and more manufacturers of silicone products, and silicone products are applied to all areas of the industry. However, with the demand of the social market, the number of manufacturers of silicone products is increasing, so how do we distinguish the quality of silicone?

How to distinguish genuine and fake silicone products?

1. Burn with fire. 

This method is the most effective. Generally, the material of high-quality silicone products is different from other rubber materials after being burned, and white smoke will be emitted. The surface of the product will appear white mist after burning, and finally it will be white powder after being completely burned. It is colorless and odorless. In contrast, different materials will turn yellow to the last black residue.

2. Feel
Hand feel is very important. Silicone products are very important in terms of stretching, resilience, deformation and toughness. If they meet the above standards, they are basically high-quality materials. They are generally used as high-end products and brand products.
3. Color
Silicone rubber products can be equipped with a variety of different colors, which can be adjusted according to the international general color number, so there is no difference in color at all, and there is no flaw after the appearance treatment, but it is mainly seen when stretching Will the rebound appear whitish or transparent? If so, the material may be a normal material

How to distinguish the quality of silicone products

1. Elasticity: Silicone products have good elasticity, because high elasticity is mainly derived from the movement of rail transit elements, so when buying silicone products, first look at the elasticity of silicone products to judge the quality
2. Hardness and constant elongation stress: hardness and constant elongation and constant force reflect important indicators of the rigidity (stiffness) of rubber materials. Both are the force required for a certain deformation of silicone products, and they are also a method to distinguish the quality of silicone products.

3. Fatigue resistance: When silicone products are subjected to alternating stress (or strain), the phenomenon of changes in the structure and performance of the material is called fatigue. As the fatigue process progresses, the phenomenon that causes the destruction of silicone products is called fatigue failure, so fatigue resistance is also a method to distinguish the quality of silicone products

4. Wear resistance: Wear resistance is possessed by the production and molding of silicone products. The surface of silicone products can suffer loss. Good silicone products rarely rub the surface of the product due to external factors and do not affect the appearance of performance. , Text, color. The surface characters of low-quality silicone products are easy to fall off
I hope that the above identification of silicone products can only be helpful to everyone
