Key Properties of Silicone Sponge
 

Closed cell structure
Silicone sponge is an elastomeric material and is expanded at the time it is heat cured. This process results in a closed cell sponge structure, meaning each cell is a complete closed sphere, trapping air within each cell and creating a natural barrier against moisture, liquids, gases and other environmental elements.

 

Temperature resistance
Silicone sponge can withstand extremely high and low temperatures, operating within a temperature range between -60 degrees Celsius and 230 degrees Celsius without compromising its structural integrity or high performance.

 

Environmental resistance
Thanks to its closed cell structure, silicone sponge is highly resistant to moisture, radiation and ozone and UV, allowing it to perform well in even the harshest of environments.

 

Water resistance
The closed cell structure also means that silicone sponge is also highly water resistant. Capable of meeting ingress protection 67 (IP67), Silicone Sponge Sheeting offers water ingress protection to many critical applications in many market sectors.

 

Compressibility
Silicone sponge offers impressive low compression set, meaning the material will recover quickly when compressed. This is a critical aspect for design engineers when testing sealing materials. The sponge can seamlessly fill gaps and conform to irregular shapes and surfaces due to its excellent flexibility, without jeopardising its structural integrity.

 

Application of Silicone Sponge

 

 

Aerospace: Silicone sponges are used in the aerospace industry for applications such as gasketing, sealing, and thermal insulation.
Automotive: They are utilised in the automotive industry for gasketing, cushioning, sealing, and vibration dampening purposes.
Electronics: Silicone sponges are commonly used in electronic devices for cushioning, shock absorption, and insulation. They can protect delicate electronic components from damage and provide thermal management.
Medical: In the medical industry, silicone sponges find applications in healthcare equipment, medical devices, and prosthetics due to their biocompatibility, sterilisation resistance, and flexibility.
Industrial Manufacturing: These sheetings are employed in industrial applications such as sealing, insulation, and noise reduction in equipment, machinery, and production processes.
Food and Drink: Silicone sponges are used in the food processing industry for applications like gaskets, seals, and vibration dampening, as they are non-toxic, FDA-compliant, and resistant to extreme temperatures.
Construction: Silicone sponges are utilised in the construction industry for sealing joints, providing thermal insulation, and reducing vibration and noise in various structures or building components.
Renewable Energy: They find applications in renewable energy systems like solar panels and wind turbines for gaskets, sealing, and thermal management purposes.
Marine: Silicone sponges are used in the marine industry for sealing and gasketing applications, as they have excellent resistance to saltwater, UV rays, and extreme temperatures.
Consumer Products: They are utilised in various consumer products such as home appliances, sporting goods, footwear, and personal care items, where cushioning, insulation, or sealing properties are required.

FAQ

 

 

Q: What are silicone sponges made of?

A: Most commercially available silicone sponge products are made from gum based polydimethylsiloxane (PMDS). The silicone elastomer is expanded at the time it is heat cured; the expansion process creates the closed cell sponge structure.

Q: What is the hardness of silicone sponge?

A: Hardness: 5 degrees ShA. Silicone sponge has excellent properties of compression, especially when the insulating surface is not smooth.

Q: How to make a silicone sponge?

A: Closed cell silicone rubber sponge is created “by subjecting a silicone base to an inert gas at an elevated pressure, preferably after a pre-curing step, reducing the pressure to allow the base to expand to produce closed cell silicone foam and curing this expanded foam at an elevated temperature”.
