When using silicone components, avoid contact with sharp objects to prevent scratching or damaging the surface. Furthermore, prevent prolonged exposure to high temperatures or intense light, as this can accelerate aging or cause discoloration. It is also necessary to clean silicone components periodically to remove surface dirt and grease, thereby maintaining their aesthetic appeal and functional integrity.
Exercise caution to avoid exceeding the applicable temperature and operating condition ranges. Although silicone exhibits excellent resistance to both high and low temperatures, prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures-or frequent cycles of heating and cooling-can still lead to a loss of elasticity or accelerated aging. Therefore, it is essential to select an appropriate grade of material based on actual operating conditions and to avoid subjecting the components to excessive loads.
For sealing products, ensure that the mounting surface is clean, free of burrs, and devoid of impurities. Additionally, maintain an appropriate level of compression; excessive compression can result in permanent deformation or insufficient elastic recovery, thereby compromising sealing performance.
