A groundbreaking innovation in the field of specialty rubber materials has recently been announced, targeting extreme environments in deep space exploration and nuclear energy equipment. Researchers have successfully developed a series of high-performance composite materials through molecular structure optimization, significantly enhancing the stability of rubber materials under cryogenic and high-radiation conditions. The core of this material system lies in the synergistic application of Solid Fluorosilicone Rubber and Fluorosilicone Raw Gum. By introducing phenyl groups, composites based on Phenyl Raw Gum maintain excellent elasticity at temperatures as low as -100°C, with a brittle point significantly lower than traditional silicone rubbers, solving sealing challenges for deep space equipment in extreme cold. Meanwhile, to address high-energy radiation environments, the R&D team incorporated special nano-functional fillers into a Liquid Fluorosilicone Rubber matrix. Experimental data shows that this new type of Fluorosilicone Rubber maintains superior mechanical properties under continuous irradiation of 300 kGy gamma rays. Inheriting the oil and solvent resistance of traditional fluorosilicone materials, it achieves a major breakthrough in radiation resistance, making it suitable for nuclear power plant instrument seals and critical aerospace components. Furthermore, as a key processing aid, the application of new modified Fluorosilicone Oil has further improved the processing rheology of the composites, ensuring the uniformity and reliability of the final products.
