Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of rubber materials technology, specifically relating to a xenon lamp aging resistant silicone rubber material and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] The main factors causing material aging are sunlight and humidity, with sunlight being a major contributor to the degradation of many materials. Automotive materials, especially non-metallic materials (plastics, rubber, and paint films), are inevitably subject to varying degrees of aging during use due to the influence of different climatic environments. To slow down the aging of automotive parts and materials, and to study the impact of environmental aging on material performance, outdoor exposure tests are often used to predict their service life. However, outdoor exposure tests have long testing cycles, making it difficult to match with the overall vehicle development schedule. Laboratories typically use methods such as xenon lamp aging tests to simulate and enhance outdoor environmental factors to shorten the testing cycle. It is well known that the aging factors of most polymer materials are mainly the synergistic effects of light, temperature, and humidity: short-wave ultraviolet light with high energy is absorbed by the macromolecular chains and decomposes according to the free radical mechanism. Simultaneously, ambient temperature and humidity accelerate this process, leading to defects such as pulverization, seepage, cracking, and deformation in polymer materials.

[0003] With the booming development of China's automotive industry, the demand for high-performance materials is increasing. The development of rubber materials for xenon lamp aging focuses on addressing the issue that the aging characteristics of high-performance xenon lamps cannot meet market demands, and the large rate of performance change limits the application range of specialty silicone rubbers.

[0026] Comparative Example 3 Nano-silica was used instead of tetraethoxysilane-modified nano-silica, meaning the nano-silica was not modified, and everything else was the same as in Example 3.

[0027] Comparative Example 4 All functional reinforcing agents were MQ type silicone resins, and the rest were the same as in Example 1.

[0028] Comparative Example 5 The nano-silica was not modified, and everything else was the same as in Example 1.

[0029] Performance testing 1. The performance of the silicone rubber materials provided in each embodiment and comparative example was tested. The hot air aging test conditions were aging at 200°C for 72 hours, and the xenon lamp aging test conditions were aging at room temperature for 360 hours. The results are shown in Table 1. Table 1. Properties of the silicone rubber materials provided in each embodiment and comparative example.

Effect of functional reinforcing agent content on the properties of rubber materials As shown in Table 2, with the continuous increase of the mass fraction of modified nano-silica, the tensile strength, hardness, and volume resistivity of the rubber material continue to increase, while the low-temperature brittleness remains unchanged; and under certain aging conditions (thermal-oxidative aging and xenon lamp aging), the color difference change rate becomes smaller and smaller.
