Abstract
The effect of compression storage on structure and surface morphology of silicone rubber in silicone rubber-stainless steel interfacial system was studied in the paper by means of ATR-FTIR, Raman spectrums, XPS spectrums and SEM. FTIR and Raman spectrums analysis indicated that no chemical change in silicone rubber was found during compression storage. XPS spectrums analysis indicated that there maybe surface chemical reaction took place during compression storage. SEM analysis indicated that the number and diameter of the open holes and microholes on the surface of samples decreased significantly with storage period, which hindered air to enter the interface when pressurized state was removed, and was beneficial for vacuum adsorption.
