Component Specifications

Definition
Filler materials are inert substances added to silicone micropowders to improve physical properties such as tensile strength, hardness, and thermal stability, while also reducing production costs. Common fillers include silica, calcium carbonate, and alumina, which are selected based on desired end-use characteristics.
Working Principle
Fillers are dispersed within the silicone matrix to occupy volume, reinforce structure, and modify rheological properties. They interact with silicone polymer chains through physical bonding or chemical coupling, enhancing mechanical integrity and thermal resistance.
Materials
Silica (SiO2), Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3), Alumina (Al2O3), Talc, or other mineral powders with particle size 1-100 μm.
Technical Parameters
  • Purity >99%
  • Particle Size 1-100 μm
  • Moisture Content <0.5%
  • Specific Surface Area 10-500 m²/g
Standards
ISO 3262, ASTM D6054
