Silicone potting has many advantages. After curing, it not only has excellent electrical insulation performance, but also has good waterproof and moisture-proof effects. It will not shrink during the curing stage. After curing, the colloid is easy to disassemble. Even if there is an electrical failure, it can be easily disassembled and repaired. What does silicone potting look like after it dries? Is it transparent?
What does silicone potting look like after it dries?
Silicone potting dries and is divided into two situations: surface drying and thorough curing. Surface drying is just a curing reaction. After a certain period of time, it will be thoroughly cured. The surface of the thoroughly cured glue presents a layer of glossy glue film, which is not sticky and soft when touched by hand. The glue is tightly|fitted with the surrounding electrical components to prevent water and moisture from invading.
Is silicone potting transparent after it dries?
After the silicone potting dries, it is completely cured. At this time, the color of the colloid is the same as the color when the glue was injected. Common colors are black, gray, white and transparent. Some transparent colors are mixed with slightly yellowish colors. Most transparent potting glues will change after many years of use, which does not affect the use.
In terms of the color of the colloid after the silicone potting is cured, it can be roughly divided into transparent potting glue and black potting glue. The color of black potting glue is adjustable and can be changed at will. So not all silicone pottings are transparent when they are dry.
Although transparent potting glue and black potting glue are both types of silicone potting, there are obvious differences between the two. When purchasing, you need to understand the adaptability of electrical appliances and purchase potting glue that matches them. In addition to paying attention to the type when purchasing, you also need to pay attention to whether the raw material ingredients are safe to avoid buying inferior products. It is obviously more quality-assured to cooperate with big brand companies, such as tensan, which focuses on the research of potting glue and provides customized potting glue application solutions. It has a wide range of uses and can be applied to new energy, military industry, medical, aviation, shipbuilding, electronics, automobiles, instruments, power supplies, high-speed rail and other industries.
The above is about whether the silicone potting is transparent after drying. In our daily choices, it is best to choose according to our own needs. After all, silicone potting has a ratio of 1:1 and 10:1. If you want to heat and cure it, choose 1:1, which has better thermal conductivity. Transparent thermal conductivity is not so good.
