硅橡膠是指主鏈由(you)硅和氧原子(zi)交替(ti)構成(cheng),硅原子(zi)上通常連有兩(liang)個有機(ji)基(ji)團的(de)橡(xiang)(xiang)膠(jiao)。普通的(de)硅橡(xiang)(xiang)膠(jiao)主要由(you)含甲基(ji)和少(shao)量乙烯基(ji)的(de)硅氧鏈節組成(cheng)。苯基(ji)的(de)引入可(ke)提(ti)(ti)高(gao)硅橡(xiang)(xiang)膠(jiao)的(de)耐高(gao)、低(di)(di)溫(wen)性(xing)能(neng),三氟丙基(ji)及氰基(ji)的(de)引入則可(ke)提(ti)(ti)高(gao)硅橡(xiang)(xiang)膠(jiao)的(de)耐溫(wen)及耐油(you)性(xing)能(neng)。硅橡(xiang)(xiang)膠(jiao)耐低(di)(di)溫(wen)性(xing)能(neng)良好(hao),一般在(zai)(zai)-55℃下仍(reng)(reng)能(neng)工(gong)作。引入苯基(ji)后,可(ke)達-73℃。硅橡(xiang)(xiang)膠(jiao)的(de)耐熱性(xing)能(neng)也很突出(chu),在(zai)(zai)180℃下可(ke)長期工(gong)作,稍高(gao)于200℃也能(neng)承受數周或更長時(shi)(shi)間仍(reng)(reng)有彈性(xing),瞬時(shi)(shi)可(ke)耐300℃以上的(de)高(gao)溫(wen)。硅橡(xiang)(xiang)膠(jiao)的(de)透氣性(xing)好(hao),氧氣透過率在(zai)(zai)合(he)成(cheng)聚合(he)物中是較高(gao)的(de)。此外,硅橡(xiang)(xiang)膠(jiao)還具有生理(li)惰性(xing)、不會導致凝血的(de)突出(chu)特性(xing),因此在(zai)(zai)醫用(yong)領(ling)域應(ying)用(yong)廣泛。
