There are significant differences between anti-sublimation silicone and ordinary silicone in many aspects. The following are their main differences:
1. Functional characteristics
Anti-sublimation silicone:
The main function is to prevent color sublimation, especially suitable for dark fabrics or fabrics that are easy to fade and sublimate.
It can effectively prevent the color of the fabric from sublimating to the surface of the silicone under high temperature or specific conditions, thereby ensuring that the color and pattern of the product are clear and durable.
Ordinary silicone:
There is no special anti-sublimation function.
It is mainly used in the production of various silicone products, such as silicone sealing rings, silicone gaskets, etc., with good high and low temperature resistance, aging resistance, oxidation resistance and other properties.
2. Application scenarios
Anti-sublimation silicone:
It is mainly used in clothing accessories, sports goods, luggage signs and other fields, especially those occasions where the color and pattern need to be kept clear and durable for a long time.
During the thermal transfer process, anti-sublimation silicone can ensure that the LOGO or pattern will not be blurred or discolored due to color sublimation.
Ordinary silicone:
It has a wide range of applications, including but not limited to electronic appliances, automobile manufacturing, medical equipment and other fields.
It is used to manufacture various silicone products, such as silicone buttons, silicone tubes, silicone strips, etc.
3. Appearance and texture
Anti-sublimation silicone:
The appearance is usually determined according to the needs, which can be white, transparent or other colors.
The texture is soft and elastic, easy to transfer and tear off.
Ordinary silicone:
The appearance and texture vary depending on the purpose, and can be solid or liquid.
Solid silicone is usually soft and durable; while liquid silicone is used to make more complex or delicate silicone products.
4. Price and cost
Anti-sublimation silicone:
Due to its special anti-sublimation function, the production cost is relatively high.
Therefore, the price of anti-sublimation silicone in the market is usually slightly higher than that of ordinary silicone.
Ordinary silicone:
The production cost is relatively low.
The price is relatively affordable and widely used in the production of various silicone products.
