How do you make silicon rubber?
Homemade silicone rubber is made by melting silicone until it turns into rubber form. Professionally, there are several ways to produce silicone rubber, most are a mixture of silicone, oxygen, carbon and hydrogen.
What is the Combustion temperature of silicon rubber?
Silicone rubber typically combusts at temperatures around 300-400°C (572-752°F). Heating silicone rubber beyond this temperature can cause it to decompose and release hazardous fumes.
What is silicone glue?
