The invention relates to the technical field of preparation of high-temperature-resistant
silica gel materials, and discloses a high-temperature-resistant
silica gel material and a preparation method thereof.The high-temperature-resistant
silica gel material is prepared from, by
mass, 60%-75% of methyl
vinyl siloxane raw rubber, 10%-20% of
silicone rubber, 5%-10 20%-30% of a reinforcing filler; 1.5%-2.5% of a
processing aid; 4%-8% of a composite heat-resistant agent; 0.5%-1.0% of a cross-linking agent; 0.6%-3.8% of a functional auxiliary agent; the
molar content of vinyl in the methyl
vinyl siloxane raw rubber is 0.1%-0.3%, and the molecular weight of the methyl
vinyl siloxane raw rubber is 400,000-700,000 Daltons. According to the invention, the composite heat-resistant agent formed by compounding the nano-scale
rare earth oxide and the
metal chelate according to a
specific mass ratio is adopted; through the free radical
capture effect of the
rare earth oxide on a
siloxane main chain and the coordination cross-linking synergistic interaction of the
metal chelate, the oxidative fracture of a
silicon-based
side chain and the degradation of the main chain at high temperature are remarkably inhibited; good
mechanical strength and rebound resilience can still be kept in a 200 DEG C high-temperature environment for a long time, and the service life of the material in the scenes of engine sealing, high-temperature cable insulation and the like is prolonged.
