Recently, specialty silicone materials manufacturer IOTA Chemical announced the launch of aerospace-grade Methyl Phenyl Vinyl Silicone Rubber IOTA120. With its exceptional radiation resistance and adjustable mechanical modulus, this product offers a new material solution for critical applications such as spacecraft seals and insulation components.

"In the space environment, materials must withstand extreme temperature variations and high-energy radiation," stated IOTA's R&D Director for Aerospace Materials. "Through precise control of phenyl content, IOTA120 achieves excellent radiation resistance at the molecular level while maintaining the inherent flexibility and sealing properties of silicone rubber."

Reportedly, this product is particularly suitable for applications with extremely high reliability requirements, such as satellite solar panel substrates and spacecraft sealing systems. Its radiation resistance can effectively extend the service life of space equipment, with high-phenyl specifications (30-40% phenyl content) better meeting the demands of long-duration space missions.

Notably, IOTA120 offers an adjustable phenyl content range from 5% to 40%, enabling engineers to customize material performance according to specific application scenarios. This design flexibility, combined with its high and low-temperature resistance (-70°C to 250°C), makes it an ideal choice for space environment applications.

The product is packaged in 25kg cardboard boxes and has a shelf life of up to 1 year under proper storage conditions, providing stable supply chain assurance for aerospace manufacturing enterprises.
