The invention relates to thixotropic liquid
silicone rubber base rubber and a preparation method thereof. Comprising the following raw materials: vinyl
silicone oil, white
carbon black,
modified cellulose and a
coupling agent. The
coupling agent is prepared from hexamethyl disilazane, dimethyl diethoxy
silane and hydroxyl
silicone oil, and the weight ratio of the hexamethyl disilazane to the dimethyl diethoxy
silane to the hydroxyl
silicone oil is 1 to (1.5 to 0.5) to (0.05 to 0.1). The liquid
silicone rubber further comprises hydroxyl vinyl
silicone oil, the content of the hydroxyl vinyl
silicone oil is 0.01%-1%, and the
viscosity of the hydroxyl vinyl silicone oil is 10 mPa.s to 10000 mPa.s. Under the joint cooperation of hexamethyldisilazane,
dimethyldiethoxysilane and hydroxyl silicone oil, the dispersion of white
carbon black in vinyl silicone oil is further promoted, the
viscosity of the liquid
silicone rubber during low shear is increased, and the thixotropic liquid
silicone rubber with excellent performance is obtained.
Cellulose is introduced into a silicone rubber
system, and during standing, a rigid
cellulose network and a white
carbon black network are mutually interspersed and have synergistic interaction, so that the structural strength of the
system is greatly enhanced.
