Development Trend of Hoses Used in Vehicles

The development of economy allows more and more people to afford to the vehicles. The vehicles have also become the most common transportation tools for us. You may be familiar with the outer structure of the vehicle, but how much do you know about the hoses that used in the vehicle? As a matter of fact, the number of hoses used in a car can be as many as 80 or more. These intercooler pipes are in different structures, diameters and lengths, and they are also made from different materials which are suitable for the working environment of certain car system. The hoses are basic channels for different fluid to flow through, and the materials of the hoses must be suitable for the chemical and physical properties of the fluid.

With the increasing awareness of environmental protection and car performance improvement, the materials used for making the hoses are also developed. The air sealing performance of auto silicone hoses is very important to achieve environmental protection and car performance improvement. The hoses are used to be made from high polymer material, and the type of the material is not able to meet the new requirements. Therefore, the hose manufacturers adopt new materials to make the hoses. Then, the auto silicone hose and the motorcycle silicone hose are produced. The auto silicone hose and the motorcycle silicone hose are made from silicon, and they have the advantages of softness, aging resistance, crack resistance, watertight performance, etc.

At the same time, the auto silicone hose and the motorcycle silicone hose have good vibration absorption performance. The types of hoses are very suitable to be used for the radiators of the vehicles. The radiators of the vehicles bear more loads due to the improvement of the vehicle performance, and the working environment of auto radiators is worse. The auto silicone hose is able to work in such environment and provide the vehicle with good radiation performance.

The hoses used for vehicles are developed according to the trend of higher strength, good adaptability, aging resistance, pressure resistance, heat resistance, corrosion resistance, toughness, airtight performance, reliability, etc. At the same time, the varies of the materials used for manufacturing the hoses are no long limited within the CR, SBR, NBR, HNBR, CM, acrylate rubber, chlorosulfonated polyethylene, chlorohydrin rubber, silicone rubber, fluorine rubber, TPE, etc. More and more new materials of great performance can be employed to manufacturing the hoses.
