In the new energy vehicle industry, organosilicon rubber has wide applications.
1. Sealing and Protection
In new energy vehicles, the battery pack needs excellent sealing to prevent impurities such as moisture and dust from entering. Organosilicon rubber has outstanding sealing performance and can form a reliable sealing barrier. It can be used for sealing gaskets of battery packs, adapt to the shape changes of battery packs under different working conditions, and ensure the durability of sealing. Meanwhile, for key components such as motors in cars, organosilicon rubber can also play roles in waterproof, moisture - proof and dust - proof, improving the service life and stability of components.
2. Heat Conduction
The batteries and electronic control systems in new energy vehicles generate heat during operation and need effective heat dissipation. Organosilicon rubber can be made into thermally conductive silicone sheets. These thermally conductive silicone sheets can fill the tiny gaps between heating elements and heat sinks, quickly conduct heat out, which helps maintain the appropriate working temperature of batteries and electronic devices and prevent performance degradation and safety hazards caused by overheating.
3. Electrical Insulation
There are numerous electrical circuits inside the car, which require good insulating materials. Organosilicon rubber has high insulation and can be used for insulating wrapping of wires and cables. In the high - voltage circuit part of new energy vehicles, organosilicon rubber can ensure electrical safety and avoid dangerous situations such as electric leakage.
