As an important part of automobiles, rubber parts are in great demand in the automotive industry market. According to statistics, 70% of the world's rubber consumption is used in the automobile industry, of which 60% is used in tires, and 40% is used in non-tire rubber products for automobiles. According to reports, nearly 80% of shock absorbers and 70% of hoses in the Japanese rubber products industry are used in the automotive industry. As a pillar industry of my country's national economy, the automobile industry has been developing rapidly in recent years.
my country's automobile production and sales have surpassed those of the United States and Japan, ranking first in the world. This is undoubtedly a huge market for the rubber industry.
Fluorine rubber (FKM)
It is used to manufacture fuel hoses, filler pipes, fuel pump and injection device seals, valve stem seals, power piston seals, crankshaft oil seals, universal joint gaskets, various O-rings, air conditioning compressor seals, etc. An average of 0.2~1.5kg of fluorine rubber is used for each automobile, and about 60% of the world's fluorine rubber consumption is used in the automobile industry. Due to the rapid development of the domestic automobile industry, the demand for fluororubber has grown rapidly, with an average annual growth rate of 30% in recent years, and the current annual demand is about 7,000 to 10,000 tons.
At present, there are foreign companies such as DuPont in the United States and Daikin in Japan. In China, there are Chenguang Chemical Research Institute, Shanghai Sanaifu New Materials Co., Ltd., Zhejiang Juhua Co., Ltd. and other units. There are mainly 23 types, 26 types, and 246 types. models. In addition, new varieties with special properties such as perfluoroether rubber, carboxynitroso fluororubber and low temperature resistance have been developed in China to meet various special needs, especially the needs of the automotive industry.
At present, the domestic production capacity of fluororubber is about 4000~5000t/a. The 4000t/a fluororubber expansion project of Chenguang Chemical Research Institute was completed at the end of March this year. After the official production, the output of fluororubber in my country will increase significantly.
Silicone rubber (MVQ) and fluorosilicone rubber
Mainly used in the manufacture of various heat-resistant sealing rings, gaskets, pipe fittings, etc., such as radiator, heat exchanger and water pump seals, cylinder head gaskets, engine cover seals, headlights, oil filter seals, connector protective sleeves, spark plugs protective cover, etc.
Room temperature vulcanized silicone sealant is used for the sealing of automobile doors, windows and various connecting parts, and also used for on-site molding of silicone rubber gaskets. Because of its reliable performance, durability, field molding, and easy use, it has been used in many automotive components, such as Protective sleeves for hinge connections and crankshafts, seals in engine cooling systems, seals in thermostat housings, water and oil pumps, oil filters, bearing seals, transmission case seals, drive axle hoods, body seals, etc. The total amount can be tens of thousands of tons.
Fluorosilicone rubber has the characteristics of high and low temperature resistance of silicone rubber and oil resistance of fluorine rubber. The price of fluorosilicone rubber is relatively high, and it is mainly used to manufacture high-precision components such as engine crankshaft oil seals.
Major foreign manufacturers of silicone rubber include Dow Corning Corporation, General Electric Corporation, and Shin-Etsu Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. of Japan. In China, there are Chenguang Chemical Research Institute, Jilin Chemical Co., Ltd., Nanjing Galte Silicone Rubber Products Co., Ltd., and Jiangsu Hongda New Materials Co., Ltd. The company and other units produce.
