Silicone Tablet Case


Silicone Tablet Case is one of the most common cases. It has a soft texture, a slightly slippery feel and has been popular in the market for many years. The market share has always been in the leads.


What is the raw material of Silicone? Silicone is a highly active absorbent material, an amorphous substance, and its chemical formula is mSiO2·nH2O. It is insoluble in water and any solvents, non-toxic, tasteless, chemically stable, and does not react with any substances except strong alkalis and hydrofluoric acid. Various Silicone forms different microporous structures due to different manufacturing methods.


Silicone's chemical composition and physical structure determine that it has the characteristics that many other similar materials are difficult to replace: high adsorption performance, good thermal stability, stable chemical properties, and high mechanical strength. According to the size of its pore size, silica gel is divided into:

●Macroporous Silicone

●Coarse Pore Silicone

●Type B Silicone

●Fine Pore Silicone


Silicone is mainly divided into organic silica gel and inorganic silica gel. Silicone Tablet Case is commonly organic Silicone. It has high-temperature resistance, good weather resistance (not afraid of UV or ozone decomposition), good insulation, and stable material.



Advantages

●Low Price

●High Adsorption Performance

●Good Cushioning Performance

●Comprehensive Protection


Disadvantages

●Thick Texture

●Few Styles

●Easy to Greasy

●Less Fit to the Fuselage

●Easy to Stain and Dust





TPU Tablet Case


TPU is a material between rubber and plastic. It is resistant to oil, water, and mold. TPU products have outstanding bearing capacity, impact resistance, and shock absorption performance.



Advantages

●High Abrasion Resistance and Strength

●High Cold Resistance

●Outstanding Oil Resistance

●Water Resistance

●Mold Resistance

●Good Flexibility


Disadvantages

●Easy to Deform

●Easily Turn Yellow





PC Tablet Case


PC plastic has good toughness and good light transmittance. There are various colors of pure PC plastic, such as pure and transparent, transparent black, transparent blue, etc.



Advantages

●Good Light Transmittance

●Strong Hardness

●Drop Resistance

●Light and Thin

●Good Strength and Toughness


Disadvantages

●Not Resistant to Scratches

●Not Resistant to Strong Acids

●Not Resistant to Strong Alkalis

●Not Resistant to Ultraviolet Rays





Differences Between Silicone, TPU, PC Tablet Cases


Different Flexibility


The flexibility of the tablet cases refers to the property that the protective shell is not easy to break after being deformed by force. It is the most significant difference in appearance and feels between Silicone, TPU, and PC materials.


●Silicone tablet cases are very soft.

●TPU tablet cases are moderately soft and hard.

●PC  tablet cases are hard.




Different Production Process


Silicone-Vulcanization Molding

The silicone molding process uses vulcanization molding, which uses the temperature and pressure of a hydraulic press to vulcanize the product with the help of a mold. This process is relatively low-cost, high-yield, and widely used. It is used primarily in single-color silicone products. It can also be applied to dual-color and dual-hardness products or multi-color and multi-hardness products, but the product's structure is not flexible and restricted. The silicone mold is opened up and down. Cut the silicone raw materials, put them in the mold, and heat and press to make the product.


TPU-Injection

After the pellets of plastic rice are heated and melted, they are injected into the plastic mold with a barrel to make the product.



PC-Vacuum Plating, PC Spraying, PC Water Transfer Heat Transfer

There are three processes for making PC shells: vacuum plating, PC spraying, and PC water transfer heat transfer.

●Vacuum Electroplating Process: electroplating on the PC shell, after electroplating, engraving some patterns, the texture is good, but after the vacuum electroplating is finished, UV varnish is required.

PC Spraying Process: you can spray rubber oil with a hand-feel. The more complicated thing is to spread a layer of primer on the colored (transparent red, transparent blue, transparent yellow, etc.) transparent PC shell and then laser engrave some patterns.

PC Water Transfer Heat Transfer Process: make some transfer patterns on the PC shell, and then spray UV varnish or rubber oil.




Different Transparency


PC and TPU can be made in fully transparent colors, but silica gel cannot.




Different Wear Resistance


Silicone and TPU have super abrasion resistance. However, the PC case is easy to scratch.




New Material-EVA Tablet Case


EVA Tablet Cases are very suitable for kids. Kids can benefit greatly from using the tablet in the classroom and at home, but little ones can be hard on the devices. In addition to the threat of breakage, there is also a danger of a child becoming shocked and injured due to improper use. With the EVA tablet case, both Ipad and the kids who use them are kept entirely safe from harm. It absorbs shocks to keep children from getting hurt. With the cases in place, kids are free to use IPads anywhere indoors or outdoors.



Advantages

★High quality of Non-toxic material

★100% shockproof case

★Perfectly fit

★Shakeproof/shockproof
