History of Silicone Hose Tubing

The longer the development time of silicone hose tubing, the more mature its production technology. At present, there are three types of organic silicone tube: ordinary industrial silicone tubing, food and medical grade silicone tubing and special silicone tubing, from the earliest silicone tube to now more and more branches.

Silicone experts predict that silicone tubing will make a breakthrough after 2020, increasing from 10 percent of the initial construction and daily necessities to 35 percent or more, indicating that silicone tubes are a booming industry. In the early days, people thought that silicone hose was a chemical extract, could it have an effect on the human body or life? After several years of testing and testing, silica gel tube is a very reliable and stable material, people are bold silica gel tube applied to life, industry and other aspects. After more than 200 years of development, silicone tubing has gained a firm foothold in many industries.

These three kinds of silicone hose tubing account for more than 85% of the share of silicone tubing market. So far, process development has become more and more mature, more and more industries and enterprises.

1. Ordinary industrial grade silicone tubing:

We often referred to as ordinary silicone tubing, because the silicone used in the process of making the precipitation, and ordinary silicone tubing is made of silicone in the bottom. Its performance still inherited the traditional characteristics of silicone, because industry each are not identical to the requirement of product quality, so manufacturers can meet the requirements of most people.

How to distinguish the type of silicone tubing, the color of ordinary silicone tubing is not very transparent, most of them will have obvious whitening. But from the industrial point of view, these are acceptable, not easy yellow, practical, price close to people, widely used in machinery, industry, construction and other industries.

2. Food and medical grade silicone tubing:

The quality of the silicone tubing surface is better, we can see it in daily life, medical devices, as well as some small home appliances. It has a high degree of transparency, safety and stability and other functions, and some can even be directly or indirectly implanted into the human body through biocompatibility. Food medical silicone tubing in the stretching process will not become white, can maintain the original transparency.

In the development process of silicone, it has a very important influence, is currently the most representative product of silicon tube. Almost everyone use it in every family, but many people don’t know about it.

3. Special silicone tubing:

There are many kinds of silicone tubing, most of which have their unique advantages, such as: high temperature resistant silicone tube (high temperature resistance 300°), flame retardant silicon tube (94-V0 level), conductive tube (resistance 0) and so on.

02, 0004 or less), and so on. These special types of silicone hose tubing plays an important role in some industries, and also show the toughness and diversity of silicone.

The special silicone tubing cannot be separated from it. It is in the process of silicone production to add or decompose a variety of additives, so that it can amplify a certain characteristics to meet the requirements of users.

So far, the development of silicone tubing is inseparable from the efforts of all silicone products, we continue to push the silicone tubing to a new height and new fields, so that more people realize the charm of silicone tubing.
