Global and China Automotive Silicone Elastomers Market Insights, Forecast to 2027

Silicone elastomers are compounded using reactive, straight chained molecules together with a cross-linking agent and reinforcement to give good mechanical properties (elasticity, absorption, tear strength). Silicones are high-performance polymers that exhibit properties of both inorganic and organic compounds. Silicone elastomers are made with a combination of linear polymers, reinforcing agents, a crosslinker and a catalyst. The viscosity and type of the basic straight-chain molecule combined with the processing temperature determine the type of elastomer produced: Heat Cured Rubber (HCR), Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR), and Room Temperature Vulcanization (RTV). These elastomers can be reinforced with either mineral fillers, such as silica, alumina, calcium carbonate, silicone resins, etc. Radical, condensation or addition crosslinking reactions may be used depending on the technology chosen to meet precise processing requirements. A wide variety of additives can be added to the elastomer in its final composition to ensure specific characteristics (color, rheology, pot life, etc.) or performance standards (electrical insulation or conduction, heat transfer, fire retardancy, chemical adhesion, mold release, etc.).

Silicones have a multitude of characteristics including heat resistance, cold resistance, weatherability, water repellency, defoaming properties, adhesiveness, releasability and dielectric properties. Silicone products are used in numerous ways to improve safety and reliability, and to make automobiles smaller, lighter and more eco-friendly.
