6.5 Tensile Strength MVQ Silicone Rubber for General Electric Components

Low Hardness MVQ Vinyl Methyl Silicone Rubber

DESCRIPTION

MVQ silicone rubber is an elastomer composed of methyl, vinyl, and silicone. It is a synthetic material with excellent temperature resistance, aging, weathering, and ozone resistance. MVQ silicone rubber is commonly used in static seals, gaskets, o-rings, and other applications requiring high-temperature resistance. It has lower mechanical characteristics than other rubbers, but its properties make it a suitable material for non-moving parts. MVQ silicone rubber is biocompatible, compliant with USP Class VI and ISO 10993 standards, and can be used in medical applications.

CHARACTERISTICS

1. Soft and Flexible: Low hardness MVQ silicone rubber is soft and flexible, making it an excellent material for sealing and cushioning applications.

2. Safty: Compliance with FDA. It is commonly used in applications such as medical tubing, seals, gaskets, and o-rings due to its excellent performance in high and low-temperature environments, chemical resistance, and stability in harsh environments. However, it is important to note that medical-grade silicone rubber should be selected based on the specific application requirements to ensure safety and efficacy.

3. Good Sealing Properties: Low hardness MVQ silicone rubber has excellent sealing properties due to its softness and flexibility, and is commonly used as gaskets, seals, and o-rings.

4. Excellent Resistance to Harsh Environments: This type of silicone rubber has good resistance to heat, cold, and chemical exposure, making it an ideal choice for harsh environments.

5. Durable: Low hardness MVQ silicone rubber is a durable material that can withstand wear and tear, making it a long-lasting solution for many applications.
