What is silicone powder used for, and how to choose a reliable Siloxane powder?

Properties of Silicone Powder [https://www.siliketech.com/silicone-powder/]

Silicone powder is a fine particulate material with unique physical and chemical characteristics. It typically has excellent thermal stability, enabling it to withstand relatively high temperatures without significant degradation. It exhibits good chemical inertness, which means it is resistant to many chemicals and does not readily react with other substances. Moreover, silicone powder [https://www.siliketech.com/silicone-powder/] has low surface energy, resulting in good hydrophobicity and lubricity. It is also known for its soft texture and flexibility, which contribute to its versatility in various applications.

SILIKE Silicone Powder, a reliable plastic processing aid

SILIKE Silicone powder (Siloxane powder) LYSI series is a powder formulation. Suitable for various applications like wire&cable compounds, engineering plastics, color/ filler masterbatches...

Compare to conventional lower molecular weight Silicone / Siloxane additives,like Silicone oil, silicone fluids or other type processing aids, SILIKE Silicone powder is expected to give improved benefits on processing proopertise and modify the surface quality of final products, eg,. Less screw slippage, improved mold release, reduce die drool, a lower coefficient of friction, fewer paint and printing problems, and a broader range of performance capabilities. What's more, it has synergistic flame retardancy effects when combined with aluminum phosphinate and other flame retardants.

Application Advantages of SILIKE Silicone Powder

Enhanced Abrasion Resistance: When incorporated into polymers or other materials, silicone powder can significantly improve their abrasion resistance. It forms a protective layer on the surface of the host material, reducing friction and wear. For example, in the production of plastics and rubber products, the addition of silicone powder can prolong the service life of these items by decreasing the rate of surface abrasion.

Improved Processing Flowability: Silicone powder acts as an effective lubricant during the processing of materials. It reduces the viscosity and internal friction of melts or mixtures, facilitating easier processing. In injection molding, extrusion, and other manufacturing processes, the presence of silicone powder allows for smoother material flow, leading to more efficient production and better quality finished products.

Release Properties: In applications such as mold release agents and coatings, silicone powder demonstrates excellent release characteristics. It prevents the adhesion of molded products to molds, enabling easy demolding.

Excellent dispersion performance: In the granulation process of color masterbatch and other functional masterbatch, the appropriate addition of SILIKE silicone powder can effectively improve the dispersion performance and reduce the aggregation of color powder, thereby improving the surface quality of the product.

Application Fields of Silicone Powder

Cable material industry [https://www.siliketech.com/silicone-powder-for-wire-cable/]: SILIKE Silicone powder [https://www.siliketech.com/silicone-powder-for-wire-cable/] has a very rich experience in the application of wire and cable material, more than 20 years, has provided customers in many countries around the world with effective cable material processing solutions. Silicone powder is widely used in various fields, they are widely used in LSZH/HFFR wire and cable compounds, silane crossing linking XLPE compounds, TPE wire, Low smoke & low COF PVC compounds. and the appropriate ratio can effectively improve the processing lubrication performance of cable materials, improve the surface finish, increase the extrusion rate, and Reduce die build-up.

Plastics Industry: In the plastics sector, SILIKE silicone powder is widely used. It can be added to polyolefins, engineering plastics, and thermoplastic elastomers. For instance, in the production of polyethylene and polypropylene products, silicone powder improves their surface properties, making them more scratch-resistant and enhancing their appearance. In engineering plastics like polyamide and polycarbonate, it helps to optimize processing and improve the overall performance of the final components.

Silicone powder is an indispensable processing aid in the plastic processing industry, which is of great help to improve the processing and surface properties of plastics. If you want to find a reliable silicone powder, please choose SILIKE.
