The invention relates to the technical field of materials, and discloses
silicone rubber for a
flame-retardant functional cable accessory and a preparation method thereof.The
silicone rubber is prepared by taking methyl vinyl
silicone rubber as a base material and
maleic anhydride grafted SEBS, a
flame-retardant material and the like as auxiliary materials through mixing,
extrusion and
vulcanization processes, the
flame-retardant material is of a
fluorene-
thioether alternating
block structure, and the flame-retardant functional cable accessory has the advantages that the flame-retardant functional cable accessory is obtained; the structure of the flame retardant contains a large number of
phosphorus flame retardant elements,
fluorene heterocyclic rings can serve as a
carbon source,
sulfur and
phosphorus elements can serve as acid sources, and secondary amine connected with the structure can serve as a gas source, so that the flame retardant has the characteristics of a three-source-integrated
intumescent flame retardant, and can interact with a
maleic anhydride grafted SEBS structure in the subsequent high-temperature
vulcanization process; therefore, the purpose of effectively improving the flame retardant property of the
silicone rubber by adding a small amount of the flame retardant is achieved, and the flame retardant long-
term effect of the
silicone rubber can be guaranteed. In addition, the
fluorene heterocyclic ring is high in rigidity, and the
mechanical strength of the
silicone rubber can be improved to a certain extent.
