Abstract

The invention relates to a silicone rubber foam material and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps: preparing polydimethylsiloxane, boric acid, a derivative thereof and an organic solvent into a polydimethylsiloxane solution, carrying out condensation polymerization, and then removing unreacted boric acid, the derivative thereof and the organic solvent to obtain shear thickening gel; mixing 1-10 parts by mass of the shear thickening gel with 100 parts by mass of vinyl-containing silicone rubber to obtain a silicone rubber base material; mixing the silicone rubber base material with 1-20 parts by mass of nanocellulose, 1-10 parts by mass of expanded microspheres and 0.01-0.5 part by mass of an organic peroxide cross-linking agent, so as to obtain silicone rubber compound; and performing pre-forming and cross-linking foaming on the silicone rubber compound to obtain the silicone rubber foaming material. The silicone rubber foam material obtained by the preparation method has the advantages of high resilience, low compression deformation and the like, and can be better applied to the fields of shock absorption and impact resistance.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of foam materials, in particular to a silicone rubber foam material and a method of preparation thereof. Background [0002] Compared with traditional impact-resistant materials, shear thickening materials have excellent damping properties and reversible soft-to-hard conversion characteristics. In its natural state, the shear thickening material maintains good flexibility and, when subjected to impact, it can quickly harden against impact. [0003] Shear thickening materials can be divided into shear thickening gel and shear thickening liquid, of which the shear thickening gel has better structural stability and high and low temperature resistance. However, due to the strong cold flow characteristics of the shear thickening gel, it is impossible to maintain its original shape in its natural state. Therefore, in traditional techniques, porous materials are often used as a skeleton to coat the shear thicken...
