Potassium Hexatitanate Whiskers (Potassium Hexatitanate Whiskers), as a kind of high-performance inorganic fiber material, has a wide range of applications in the field of composite materials due to its unique mechanical properties, high temperature resistance and chemical stability.
About its application in silicone sealant, the following is a comprehensive analysis:
1. Feasibility:
Enhanced performance: Potassium Hexatitanate Whiskers' high strength, high modulus and abrasion resistance can enhance the mechanical properties of silicone sealant (such as tensile strength, tear resistance)
Heat resistance: Whisker's high temperature resistance (melting point of about 1,300 ° C) can improve the sealant's stability in high temperature environments, suitable for automotive, aerospace and other high temperature application scenarios. Chemical Compatibility: Silicone sealants are chemically compatible with each other.Chemical compatibility: Silicone sealants (polysiloxane-based) are generally compatible with inorganic fillers, but the structure of the whisker surface and silicone-based surface modifiers must be ensured.
2. Potential Application Scenarios
High Performance Sealant: Used for industrial seals that require high temperature and corrosion resistance, such as engine parts and electronic component packages.
Functional fillers: By adding a small amount (usually 1-10%), the rheological properties can be optimized to reduce sedimentation, while maintaining the flexibility of the sealant.
