Silicone tapes are manufactured from cured silicone rubber, a type of elastomer that provides extended life and durability in its end use as a protective tape. It generally consists of a thin layer of silicone gel in order to make it fuse to itself (self-fusing), to form a permanent bond around any substance it is applied to.
Hence, silicone tapes are also popularly known as self-vulcanizing, self-amalgamating, or silicone gel tapes. In practice, silicone tapes form a bond with the object when stretched and wrapped around it, and eventually self-fuse within minutes or a few hours.
When stretched and wrapped around pipes, hoses, cables and electrical joints, silicone tapes bond or combine themselves to form a seamless, strong, waterproof, rubbery and an electrically insulated coating. Silicone tapes are resistant to weather, heat and sunlight.
Silicone tapes also have polydimethylsiloxane content in their gel, which has zinc oxide as an ingredient to function as an ultraviolet inhibitor; thus making the tape resistant to ultraviolet radiation from sunlight, moisture, and the effect of ozone in the environment, and thereby reducing its degradation rate. Silicone tapes have also been intended to withstand the impact of moisture, and contact with acids, fuels, solvents and soldering splashes.
Considering the diverse applications of silicone tapes on account of their enormously desired qualities, it is important to study the global silicone tapes market.
