Abstract:
A rubber connector which is an alternately stratified integral body consisting of a multiplicity of layers of a cured electrically conductive rubber and a multiplicity of layers of a cured electrically insulating rubber, the cured electrically conductive rubber being formed by curing an electrically conductive silicone rubber composition which comprises, as a uniform blend:(A) 100 parts by weight of an organopolysiloxane represented by the average unit formula RnSiO(4âˆ’n)/2, â€ƒIn which R is an unsubstituted or substituted monovalent hydrocarbon group and the subscript n is a positive number in the range from 1.98 to 2.02, at least two of the groups denoted by R in a molecule being aliphatically unsaturated groups; (B) from 90 to 800 parts by weight of electrically conductive particles, each particle being composed of a core particle of a non-metallic material and a plating layer of a metallic material on the core particles; and (C) a curing agent in an amount sufficient to effect curing of the organopolysiloxane as the component (A).
