Silicon Fabric, a composite material made by bonding fabric and silicone without the use of chemical adhesives, boasts a variety of excellent properties. It is commonly used in food, medical, baby care, household, industrial, construction, and high-temperature protection applications. The following outlines the structure and key features of Silicon Fabric:

Structure and Key Features of Si-Tex Silicon Fabric

Si-Tex Silicon Fabric has a unique structure composed of a fabric layer on top and a silicone layer on the bottom.

The core of this material lies in its patented technology. It uses a physical principle where the silicone, as it cures and expands, mechanically interlocks with the fibers of the fabric, creating a strong bond between these two different materials. Notably, this lamination process is achieved without any chemical adhesives or primers.

Based on its special structure and patented technology, Si-Tex Silicon Fabric offers several advantages, making it an ideal substitute for many traditional petrochemical plastic products:

• Safe and Non-Toxic: Made from natural mineral silicon dioxide, it contains no heavy metals or other chemical toxins.

• High Temperature Resistance: Can withstand temperatures from -40°C to 230°C.

• Excellent Waterproofing: Highly flexible and elastic, it effectively resists moisture and water.

• UV Resistance: Has good resistance to UV rays, making it suitable for outdoor use.

• Reusable: Can be reused after being sterilized by boiling, sun exposure, or high-heat drying, making it easy to clean and maintain.

• Environmentally Friendly: The production process is non-polluting, the lamination uses no chemical adhesives, the material is recyclable, and it does not produce dioxins when burned.

Main Features of Si-Tex Silicone-Coated Fabric:

1. Excellent Temperature Resistance
   Long-term operating temperature range: approx. -70℃ to 260℃.
   Some high-performance grades can withstand up to 300℃.
   Resistant to hardening, cracking, or deformation under extreme hot or cold conditions.

2. Outstanding Electrical Insulation
   Silicone is a superior insulator.
   Silicone-coated fabric offers high dielectric strength and voltage resistance, making it suitable for electrical equipment protection.

3. Chemical Resistance
   Resistant to acids, alkalis, salts, oils, and most chemical agents.
   Not easily corroded or decomposed.

4. Flame Retardant
   Naturally flame-resistant.
   Does not drip molten material when burning, ensuring high safety.

5. High Mechanical Strength
   With fabric as the base reinforced by silicone coating, it has high tensile strength, tear resistance, and abrasion resistance.
   Stable structure, not easily deformed.

6. Waterproof & Impermeable
   Dense silicone coating provides excellent resistance to water, oil, and penetration.

7. Non-toxic & Eco-friendly
   Silicone is an environmentally friendly material, non-toxic and odorless.
   Some products meet FDA food-grade standards, suitable for food processing and household use.

8. Flexible & Easy to Process
   Silicone fabric is flexible and tough, allowing cutting, sewing, lamination, or compounding into various products.
   Adaptable for diverse applications.
