Mechanical Recycling of Silicone Rubber: Influence of Particle Size and Quantity
Polymer Engineering &Science, Volume 65, Issue 11, Page 6207-6216, November 2025.Silicone rubbers of three different hardnesses were ground into particles and used as fillers in a liquid silicone rubber matrix, whereby the particle size and quantity varied. The mechanical properties were only slightly altered by the addition of ground particles and showed the general possibility of mechanical silicone recycling.
