Biocompatibility and medical application potential:
Medical-grade silicone (such as PDMS) can directly contact human tissues and is suitable for printing: customized prostheses (artificial ears, nasal cartilage), surgical guides and patient-specific organ models, drug sustained-release implants (such as drug-loaded silicone microstructures). Cases: Prototypes of existing artificial heart valves and bionic skin have been printed.
Super elastic and energy-absorbing silicone rubber can withstand tensile deformation of over 500%.
It is used in: flexible sensors (pressure/strain sensing), shock-absorbing and buffering structures (insoles, protective equipment), deformable structures (soft robot joints), and can withstand extreme environments with a temperature range of -50°C to 250° C. Applicable to: Aerospace seals, automotive heat-resistant pipelines, chemical experiment devices
