A Study on Flame Retardancy and Tracking Properties of Expanded Vermiculite Added Silicon Rubber for Wire
Seung Ho Park, Sung Ill Lee
J Electr Electron Mater 2019;32(3):213-218.   Published online May 1, 2019
In this study, a high-temperature vulcanizing (HTV) method was used to achieve a shore a hardness of 70. The basic base was composed of 60% silicon gum (GUM) which is a high-viscosity polymer, 30% fumed silica (FS), and 5% of plasticizer. The GUM and FS were mixed well with less than 1% silane to improve rubber strength. Expanded vermiculite was added as a filler at 10%, 15%, and 20%. The curing conditions were 170℃ for 10 min and a molding method was applied. We report herein, the results of inorganic analysis and flame-retardant and tracking tests on the expanded vermiculite. The flame retardance and tracking test outcomes for a shore a hardness of 70 were found to be optimal when the expanded vermiculite content was 10%.
