Reasons for Platinum Catalysts in the Production of Automotive Wiring Harness Protection Sleeve

Catalysts are used in chemical production, and the main function of catalysts is to speed up the reaction rate. The production of Automotive Wiring Harness Protection Sleeve is no exception. The catalyst generally used in Automotive Wiring Harness Protection Sleeve is platinum catalysts. So, what are the benefits of using platinum catalysts for Automotive Wiring Harness Protection Sleeve? Is it high production efficiency, or is it just low vulcanization temperature and power saving?

Recently, when using platinum catalyst to try out Automotive Wiring Harness Protection Sleeve products, the following situations were found:
1. The cost is more than 10 yuan/kg higher than the formula of ordinary Automotive Wiring Harness Protection Sleeve.
2. The surface of the hardness block (7MM) with platinum catalyst is sticky (similar to unfamiliarity), and the hardness is about 4~5 degrees lower than that of ordinary automobile wiring harness protective sleeves.
3. When the product is vulcanized, the parking time is short, and it is easy to have air bubbles.
Sharing from the Cable Sleeve manufacturer: Platinum vulcanized products are completely tasteless and fully comply with FDA requirements. Platinum vulcanized Cable Sleeve has a certain flame retardant effect. The product after platinum vulcanization has high transparency and will not release peroxide when heated. Performance should be high. However, the platinum vulcanization temperature should not be too high. We generally recommend 116 degrees for 10 minutes for vulcanization. Addition-type platinum vulcanizing agent is mainly used in food-grade products. After disulfide, it can easily meet FDA requirements, and the products have high transparency. However, platinum vulcanizing agents are not used in general products because the cost is too high.
