In fields such as aerospace and electronics, equipment often has to withstand extreme environments like ultra-low temperatures and strong radiation. Ordinary materials either become stiff and break when frozen or fail under the influence of radiation. However, IOTA 3301 methylphenyl raw rubber, with its excellent resistance to high and low temperatures as well as radiation, has become a "suitable expert" for extreme environments.

Essentially, it is a macromolecular methylphenyl silicone oil, and its molecules contain a large number of phenyl groups, which are the key to its outstanding performance. Depending on the phenyl content, its "capabilities" can be flexibly adjusted:
- When the phenyl content is low, its low-temperature resistance is maximized. Even in an ultra-low temperature environment of -110°C, it still maintains a certain degree of flexibility and will not become brittle and crack like ordinary materials. Products made with it as the basic raw material can work stably in cold regions or low-temperature equipment.
- When the phenyl content is medium, its damping performance is significantly improved. It can effectively absorb vibrations and reduce noise, making it particularly suitable for mechanical components that require shock absorption.
- When the phenyl content is high, its radiation resistance is prominent. Even if it is in a radioactive environment for a long time, its performance will not decline significantly, providing reliable protection for aerospace and nuclear-related equipment.

In addition to these targeted advantages, it also has many "general skills". It has excellent thermal stability and will not easily deteriorate even in high-temperature environments. With low volatility and no odor, it does not release excess harmful substances during use, making it both environmentally friendly and safe. Its storage stability is also reassuring, as its performance will not decrease even after long-term storage. Moreover, it is insoluble in water but soluble in solvents such as toluene. During construction, its form can be adjusted according to needs, facilitating its use with other materials. After being made into products, it has small compression deformation and can withstand saturated vapor pressure. Even in humid and high-pressure environments, it can maintain its original shape and performance and is not easily damaged.

Thanks to these advantages, it has played an important role in many fields. In the aerospace field, it can be used to manufacture high and low temperature resistant sealing materials to cope with extreme temperature differences at high altitudes. In the electronics industry, it is an excellent waterproof, moisture-proof and insulating material that can protect precision components such as circuit boards from moisture. In the mechanical field, by virtue of its damping performance, it can be made into shock-absorbing components to make equipment run more smoothly. In the chemical industry, its resistance to high and low temperatures and corrosion makes it an ideal material for special working conditions. More notably, it also has physiological inertness and can be used in the medical and health field. For example, it can be used for blood refrigeration sealing to ensure the safety of blood storage, or to make medical tubes to avoid adverse effects on the human body.

This methylphenyl raw rubber, which can adapt to multiple scenarios and has "customizable" performance, undoubtedly provides a new solution for various industries to deal with extreme environments, allowing more equipment to operate stably even under complex conditions.
