Is PVC soft rubber durable?

PVC products are mainly made of PVC powder (polyvinyl chloride), oil, and color paste. The raw materials are heated and cooled by the micro-injection dripping process. The silicone products are mainly made of silicone raw materials plus color master paste and other chemical elements. It is compressed and formulated by a rubber mixing machine, and the required raw materials are formed in a mold by heating and cooling by a hydraulic press. Silicone includes liquid silicone and solid silicone.

From the appearance of the product, PVC products are rougher than silicone products, and the surface of silicone products is smooth and colorful.

Judging from the hand feel, silicone products are soft, with good toughness and elasticity, while PVC soft rubber is relatively less rigid, and the hardness of both can be adjusted, but PVC has no toughness.

PVC materials are common materials and eco-friendly materials, also called ATBC-PVC, while silica gel can pass ROHS certification and is eco-friendly.

Silicone products are generally made relatively transparent, have a relatively small burning smell, and the product is in powder form, while PVC products will turn black after being burned with unpleasant smell when burning.

Silicone products are more heat-resistant and cold-resistant than PVC products. Silicone products can be heated in a microwave oven, but PVC cannot.
