How is silicone fabric produced?

Generally speaking silicone fabric refers to the compound of glass fiber cloth and silicone coating, so it can also be called silicone coated glass fiber cloth.Silicone fabric is made of glass fibre cloth as base cloth, and the coating material is scraped, rolled, impregnated or calendered on the base cloth material, and then entered into the oven for drying and heat treatment.Each different process has its own characteristics, different processes, corresponding to the uniformity of silicone fabric glue, surface brightness, silicone coating adhesion will be different. It is obvious that the quality of silicone cloth is affected by the glass fiber cloth and coating, the higher the strength of the glass fiber cloth is used, the better the quality of the silicone fabric will be. The coating generally contains substances such as the main coating agent, flame retardant system, vulcanising agents, colouring agents, solvents, other additives, etc., which together will determine the quality of the silicone fabric, so the coating formula is a technical job, and it is also the core technology of every silicone cloth factory.

   Silicone fabric is a high-performance, multi-purpose composite material, has been widely used in aerospace, chemical, petroleum, large power generation equipment, machinery, metallurgy, electrical insulation, construction and other fields.Silicone fabric has the advantages of flame retardant, fireproof, waterproof, good sealing, high temperature resistance, anti-chemical corrosion, abrasion resistance, weather resistance, anti-aging, etc., and the texture is relatively soft and flexible, suitable for making a variety of shapes of soft connections.The long-term working temperature is 200°C and the maximum temperature resistance is up to 500°C.The thickness of the silicone fabric is generally between 0.2 mm and 6 mm.It is generally used for fireproof cloth for smoke barrier, non-metallic skin (ring tape), fan soft connection, fire blanket, fire curtain, removable thermal insulation jacket, etc.
