What is Platinum Curing?

Platinum curing, also known as addition curing, is a process where platinum catalysts are used to cure silicone rubber. This method results in a product that is superior in terms of purity, strength, and resistance to various environmental factors. White Platinum Cured Silicone Rubber Strip is highly resistant to UV rays, extreme temperatures, and harsh chemicals, making it an ideal choice for demanding applications.

Key Features of White Platinum Cured Strip 60° Shore

  1. 60° Shore Hardness
    The 60° Shore hardness rating refers to the material's flexibility. With a moderate level of firmness, the White Platinum Cured Strip offers a perfect balance between flexibility and strength, making it easy to cut, shape, and install while ensuring it maintains its form over time. This medium hardness is well-suited for applications where a tight seal or gasket is required.

  2. High-Temperature Resistance
    One of the key advantages of platinum-cured silicone is its ability to withstand high temperatures without degrading. The 60° Shore silicone strip can perform well under continuous exposure to high heat, making it suitable for environments where heat resistance is critical, such as in automotive, electrical, and industrial sealing.

  3. Chemical and Environmental Resistance
    Platinum-cured silicone is known for its excellent chemical resistance. This strip can endure exposure to a wide range of chemicals, oils, and solvents without losing its shape or functionality. Additionally, it is resistant to environmental stress, including UV rays, ozone, and extreme weather conditions, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.

  4. Food-Safe and Non-Toxic
    Another significant benefit of this silicone strip is its food-grade quality. Platinum curing ensures that the rubber strip remains non-toxic and safe for use in applications where it comes into contact with food, such as in food processing or medical equipment.

  5. Electrical Insulation
    The White Platinum Cured Strip is an excellent electrical insulator, offering resistance to electrical current flow. This property makes it a valuable material for use in electrical applications, including as insulation for wires, cables, and other sensitive components.

  6. Durability and Longevity
    Thanks to the platinum curing process, this silicone strip boasts long-lasting performance even under the harshest conditions. It resists aging, cracking, and hardening, ensuring a prolonged service life. Whether exposed to heat, chemicals, or physical stress, the material will maintain its integrity for extended periods.

Common Applications of White Platinum Cured Silicone Strip 60° Shore

  • Seals and Gaskets: Perfect for use in manufacturing gaskets or seals for machinery, appliances, and containers. It offers a reliable, long-lasting seal that prevents leakage of gases, liquids, and dust.
  • Automotive and Aerospace: With its temperature and chemical resistance, it is widely used in automotive parts and aerospace components, where sealing and insulation are vital.
