In the various links of ensuring travel safety, the reliability of airbags is crucial, and the key to determining airbag performance often lies in an inconspicuous coating material. Recently, a special coating liquid silicone for airbags named IOTA M1730/M1740 has officially entered the market. With a number of outstanding features, it has brought new breakthroughs to the field of safety protection.
The core advantage of this coating liquid silicone is its super strong self-adhesion to nylon 66 material. Nylon 66 is a common fabric for making airbags, and whether the coating can adhere firmly to it directly affects the service life and protective effect of the airbag. In the past, some coatings were prone to peeling off and delamination after long-term use, but this silicone is like a "tailor-made" adhesive for nylon 66. No matter how many times it undergoes folding and vibration, it can fit tightly without gaps, ensuring that the airbag can function steadily at critical moments and adding an extra layer of peace of mind for drivers and passengers.
Convenient and fast operation is another major highlight. It has extremely low viscosity, flowing as smoothly as water, which allows it to easily adapt to the automatic feeding system of pumps in factories. In the past, when using high-viscosity coatings, problems such as material blockage and uneven feeding often occurred, requiring frequent manual cleaning and debugging, which was time-consuming and affected efficiency. Now, with this silicone, the machine can automatically and accurately feed materials, eliminating a lot of troubles, greatly accelerating the production rhythm and reducing material waste.
What is even more surprising is that it perfectly balances operation time and curing speed. After mixing the materials, workers have ample time to adjust the coating thickness and range without rushing to meet the schedule; once entering the heating and curing stage, it can quickly set without long waits, significantly shortening the overall production cycle. Moreover, the cured silicone is particularly "strong" with excellent tensile and tear resistance. Even when the airbag expands and bears huge pressure, it can remain stable and not be easily damaged.
Beyond airbags, this coated silicone has a wide range of applications. Coating it on architectural textiles can make the fabric more waterproof and wear-resistant, extending its service life; applying it to protective clothing can improve the protection level, providing better safety guarantees for people engaged in outdoor operations, medical care and other fields; using it to seal 3C products can effectively block dust and moisture, protecting electronic components from normal operation. It is believed that as more enterprises discover its advantages, this multi-functional coated silicone will play a role in more fields and contribute to the upgrading of product quality.
