Why silicon extrusion led strip light is better than PVC version? Because silicon one has more advantages:
- Silicon rubber raw material is UV light & oxygen &ozone resistance , no color changing as time goes by, but PVC will change yellowish, ideal for commercial outdoor lighting system
- PVC is being with heavy bad smell, silicon rubber is non-toxic odourless, tasteless
- Good electrical insulation, good resistance to low concentrations of acids and salts
- The modern core-hollow-structure design brings better beam angle, and the capsule silica is separate from electrical led boards, which is more easier for combination and repairs
- High temperature resistance with wide operating temperature (-40 … +100°C), which makes strip lights used for all the fields, including under water applications
- Silicon led strips lights are from extrusion process by moulds, easy for required sizes, shapes and colors
- it’s also good electrical insulation, elasticity……
Certainly, it’s more expensive.
