Why do silicone products absorb dust? What is the solution?

Silicone does have powerful practical functions, one of which is to make it both beneficial and harmful. Dust and impurities are one of the weakest shortcomings of silica gel products, and adsorption is the main composite essence of silica gel. Therefore, many silicone products on the market cannot provide solutions for dust and debris. In daily life, silicone coasters are one of them. What are the main reasons and solutions for silicone products to absorb dust?

Firstly, phenomena such as dust and viscous impurities are the inherent chemistry of silica, while adsorption is an inevitable factor in the raw materials. Therefore, for the use of silicone products and the placement of textiles and plush in daily life, there will definitely be adhesive phenomena, but such phenomena need to be handled and resolved by silicone product manufacturers.

We should know that adsorption force is the main reason for dust accumulation in silicone products. Therefore, in the raw materials, the additives in organic silicon and inorganic silicon are different, and the adsorption methods are also different, which can reduce the silicon chain substructure units in silicone materials. When mixing raw materials, a large amount of water can be added to destroy the adsorption strength of silicon hydroxyl groups and reduce the activity ratio in silica gel adsorption.

The formed silicone products belong to the non secondary treatment process, so the surface has the ability to automatically adsorb dust. Static electricity can be covered by electrostatic oil surface spraying to prevent adsorption. There are two ways to handle it: first, silicone product manufacturers use anti-static glue before processing and production to control the adsorption energy of silicone in the raw materials and reduce the anode. Another method is to spray the generated silicone product with anti-static oil to make its surface smooth and free of static electricity.
