1. Functions
1)Sealing and Protection:Its main job is to stop external things from getting into the interior of medical testing and analysis equipment. Like dust, particles, and liquids—things such as cleaning/disinfection water and reagent solutions. The inside of this kind of equipment usually has precision optical components, electronic circuit boards, and sensors. If these parts get dirty, it might cause problems. Like component damage or inaccurate test results. Its sealing performance is the same as the barrier role of Medical Device Seals and Sterile Medical Seals. It keeps critical equipment components safe and intact.
2)Shock Absorption and Cushioning:When the equipment gets vibrated or hit, the sealing gasket can work as a cushion. It reduces rigid collisions between the equipment shell and internal components. This protects fragile internal elements. It also keeps the equipment stable and reliable. This buffering performance helps with the functional advantages of Universal Gaskets. It also matches the durability requirements of Medical Equipment Basics.
3)Chemical Corrosion Prevention:The medical environment has different chemical reagents. The sealing gasket can block corrosive chemical gases or liquids. It stops them from touching internal equipment components. This avoids component corrosion. It also makes the equipment last longer. This corrosion resistance meets the protective standards of Medical Grade Silicone Seals in harsh chemical environments.
2. Required Characteristics
1)Excellent Sealing Performance:It must have great sealing abilities. It can fit tightly with the equipment surface. Even under different pressure and temperature conditions, it can stop contaminants effectively. This usually depends on two things: the elasticity of its material and its ability to compress and deform properly. Its performance is as good as that of high-precision Medical Vial Cap Seals.
2)Chemical Resistance:It must stand common disinfectants. Like alcohol and chlorine-containing disinfectants. It also must stand acid-alkaline reagents. After touching these chemicals, it won’t have problems. Things like dissolving, changing shape, getting old, or getting worse won’t happen. This makes sure the sealing gasket works normally and keeps its appearance. This stability meets the material standards of Sterile Medical Seals that are exposed to medical chemicals.
3)Biocompatibility:It’s used in medical environments. So when it touches the human body—like when operators touch it—it can’t cause bad reactions. Things like allergies or irritation won’t happen. It has to meet the biosafety requirements for medical-grade materials. This is a basic requirement for all Silicone Medical Components and Medical Seals that may touch users.
4)High-Temperature and High-Pressure Resistance:Medical equipment needs disinfection. To meet this need, the sealing gasket must stand high-temperature and high-pressure sterilization. Like 121℃ high-pressure steam sterilization for 15–20 minutes. After this sterilization, it won’t change shape, get sticky, or release harmful substances. This resistance matches the disinfection adaptability of General Medical Sealing and Basic Components.
5)Dimensional Stability:The equipment might be in different environmental conditions. Like different temperatures and humidity levels. Under these conditions, the size of the sealing gasket can only change a tiny bit. This change must be controlled within a very small range. This makes sure it can always fit tightly with the equipment. It also keeps the sealing effective. This stability is crucial for maintaining reliable sealing over a long time. It’s similar to the precision requirements of Medical Device Seals.
6)Wear Resistance:The equipment is used for a long time. During this time, the sealing gasket might get rubbed. So it needs good wear resistance. Its surface won’t get worn or cracked easily. This makes sure the gasket lasts a long time. It also keeps its sealing performance durable. This meets the long-term use standards of Universal Gaskets and Silicone Medical Components.
