1. Te matotoru
He whakamārama mō ngā kupu pūtaiao me ngā kupu hangarau: Ngā āhuatanga rōrahi o te wai, te wai rūpahu, te matū rūpahu rānei ki te rere, arā, te waku ā-roto, te ātete ā-roto rānei o te rere i waenga i ngā ngota ina rere i raro i te mahi a te kaha o waho. I raro i ngā āhuatanga noa, he rite tonu te matotoru ki te pakeketanga.

2. Te pakeketanga
Ko te kaha o tētahi rauemi ki te ātete ā-rohe i ngā mea mārō e pēhia ana ki tōna mata e kiia ana ko te pakeketanga. Ko te awhe pakeketanga o te rapa silicone he 10 ki te 80, e hoatu ana ki ngā kaihoahoa te mana katoa ki te whiriwhiri i te pakeketanga e hiahiatia ana kia pai ai te whakatutuki i ngā mahi motuhake. Ka taea te whakatutuki i ngā uara pakeketanga waenga mā te whakaranu i ngā papa polymer, ngā whakakī me ngā tāpiringa i roto i ngā ōwehenga rerekē. Waihoki, ko te wā me te pāmahana o te whakamahana me te whakamaroke ka taea hoki te whakarerekē i te pakeketanga me te kore e whakangaro i ētahi atu āhuatanga ā-tinana.

3. Te kaha o te kume
Ko te kaha kume e pā ana ki te kaha e hiahiatia ana i roto i ia waeine awhe hei mea i te wahi o te tauira rauemi rapa kia haehae. Ko te kaha kume o te rapa silicone totoka kua whakamomonahia ki te wera kei waenganui i te 4.0-12.5MPa. Ko te kaha kume o te rapa fluorosilicone kei waenganui i te 8.7-12.1MPa. Ko te kaha kume o te rapa silicone wai kei roto i te awhe 3.6-11.0MPa.

Tuawhā, te kaha o te roimata
Ko te ātete e ārai ana i te whakanui o te tapahi, te kōhao rānei ina pā te kaha ki te tauira tapahi. Ahakoa ka whakanohoia ki raro i te ahotea torsional tino teitei i muri i te tapahi, kāore e taea te haehae i te rapa silicone totoka kua whakamomonahia e te wera. Ko te awhe kaha haehae o te rapa silicone totoka kua whakamomonahia-wera kei waenganui i te 9-55 kN/m. Ko te awhe kaha haehae o te rapa fluorosilicone kei waenganui i te 17.5-46.4 kN/m. Ko te kaha haehae o te rapa silicone wai kei waenganui i te 11.5-52 kN/m.

5. Te whakaroa
Ko te tikanga e pā ana ki te "Whakaroa Pakaru Tino" arā, te ōrau pikinga e pā ana ki te roa taketake ina pakaru te tauira. Ko te roa o te rapa silicone totoka kua whakamomonahia ki te wera he 90 ki te 1120%. Ko te roa whānui o te rapa fluorosilicone kei waenganui i te 159 me te 699%. Ko te roa whānui o te rapa silicone wai kei waenganui i te 220 me te 900%. Ka taea e ngā tikanga tukatuka rerekē me te whiriwhiri i te whakapakeke te whakarerekē nui i tōna roa. He nui te pānga o te roa o te rapa silicone ki te pāmahana.

6, te wā whakahaere
Ka tatauhia te wā mahi mai i te wā e tāpirihia ana te kōroiti ki te matū whakamomona. Kāore he rohe katoa i waenganui i tēnei wā mahi me te wā whakamomona i muri mai. Kua pāngia te kōroiti e te tauhohenga whakamomona mai i te wā e tāpirihia ana te matū whakamomona. Ko te tikanga o tēnei wā mahi, kāore te tauhohenga whakamomona 30-meneti o te hua e pā ki te kounga o te hua kua oti. Nō reira, ko te nui ake o te wā e penapenahia ana i roto i te tukanga whakahaere hua, ko te nui ake o tōna painga ki te hua kua oti.

7, te wā whakaora
Ka kīia e ētahi wāhi kua tae ki te wā whakamaroke. Arā, kua mutu te tauhohenga whakamomona o te silica gel i muri i tētahi wā roa. Kua mutu tēnei, arā, kua wātea kē te hua, engari kei reira tonu tētahi wāhanga iti o te tauhohenga whakamaroke kāore anō kia mutu. Nō reira, ko ngā hua i hangaia ki te rapa silicone, pērā i ngā pokepoke silicone, ka roa te wā i mua i te whakamahinga.
Te kiripaka (Te kiripaka; Silica) ingoa kē: He rauemi mimiti kaha te kiripaka, he matū kore-āhua. Ko tōna tauira matū ko mSiO2·nH2O; kāore e tauhohe ki tētahi atu matū engari ko te waikawa kawakore kaha me te waikawa hauwaiwai. Kāore e wairewa i roto i te wai me ngā whakarewa katoa, kāore e paitini, kāore he reka, ā, he pumau te matū. He rerekē ngā hanganga moroiti o ngā momo kiripaka nā runga i ā rātou tikanga hanga rerekē. Ko te hanganga matū me te hanganga ā-tinana o te kiripaka e whakatau ana he maha atu ngā rauemi rite e uaua ana ki te whakakapi: he mahi mimiti teitei, he pumau wera pai, he āhuatanga matū pumau, me te kaha miihini teitei. E ai ki te rahi o tōna pūwero, ka wehea te kiripaka ki: te kiripaka macroporous, te kiripaka pore matotoru, te kiripaka momo-B, te kiripaka pore pai, me ētahi atu.

Kāore i te pumau te utu o ngā rauemi silicone i tēnei wā, e piki haere ana i ia rā, he uaua ki a mātou te whakatau i te utu. Ka taea noa e mātou te hangangā pokepoke siliconeināianei.
