Baking at 200 degrees with hot air, the sealing ring turns yellow and deforms. The air fryer sealing ring cannot withstand the temperature, turning the fryer into an oven.

Conclusion first: Air fryer sealing ring, heat-resistant and oil-resistant, tied together

The air fryer sealing ring is the 'component that withstands hot air': 200°C hot air, splashing grease, and repeated opening and closing.

Materials need to be heat-resistant, oil-resistant, and sealing — conclusion first: for air fryer sealing rings, high-temperature resistant SEBS-based TPE is mainstream; for high-temperature scenarios, silicone remains.

The biggest pitfall of the air fryer sealing ring: the material hasn't changed, what may have changed is the process. If the material hasn't been changed but the process window has shifted, the part will be wrong—process is the other half of the selection.

The air fryer sealing ring is a functional component: if it turns yellow and deforms, the hot air will run wild. Choosing the right material ensures the fryer is stable—it's a functional part, don’t skimp on the material cost.

Why TPE can withstand hot air: temperature resistance can be increased, oil resistance can be achieved

Reasons for using TPE for the air fryer sealing ring: It can withstand high temperatures, is oil-resistant, seals well, and is highly efficient—combined, these four reasons make it suitable for sealing rings.

Temperature resistance is key: 200°C hot air. Temperature resistance data should be verified according to the actual temperature—if it deforms, that's a problem.

Oil resistance cannot be compromised: oil splashes. Oil resistance testing should be included in the acceptance—swelling leads to seal leakage.

Fry it for a day and roast it: hot air, oil splashing, opening and closing

Hot air condition: hot air circulation. Temperature resistance data must be tested—deformation equals a problem.

Oil condition: oil splashes. Oil resistance data needs to be tested—swelling indicates a problem.

Opening and closing conditions: opening and closing every day. Fatigue data must be verified—seal degradation is the problem.

TPE or silicone: check the ring to see if it's yellow

Table reading: Silicone has good temperature and oil resistance but is expensive; TPE has a high cost-performance ratio — mainstream air fryers use TPE.

Silicone for high-end models, regular TPE — choose according to the model.

Process window verification: material temperature and mold temperature margin

Table reading: When the process window is correct, the material hasn't changed, and the part is stable—if the temperature, pressure, or mold temperature deviates a little, the part will be incorrect.

Check the process first, then discuss changing materials.

Two pitfalls: process misjudgment and temperature resistance fraud

Pitfall 1: Misjudging the process. The material hasn’t changed, but the parts are incorrect. Don’t rush to change the material—check the process window first.

Pitfall 2: False temperature resistance labeling. The report states temperature resistance, but actual deformation occurs — temperature resistance should be accepted based on actual measurement.

Pitfall 3: Oil resistance leakage test. Grease swelling — oil resistance testing is a must.

Three acceptance questions: temperature resistance, oil resistance, batch

Three questions: What temperature for heat resistance, what medium for oil resistance, and whether the process window is provided. One check: actual test of the fryer—three questions and one check make the supplier's background clear.

Process validation should come first: the material hasn't changed, what might change is the process. Focus on the process windows first, then talk about changing materials — the process is the other half of selection.

Making sample retention a habit: retain samples for each batch, and re-test temperature and oil resistance by batch. When changing materials for a batch, compare first before scaling up—the more stable the batch, the fewer the customer complaints.

Even if the material hasn't changed, problems can still occur; what might have changed is the process knobs. Mold temperature, material temperature, holding pressure, and cooling all affect each other. Low mold temperature causes more flow marks, while high material temperature leads to decomposition and odor release.

Frying oil splashes occur at high temperatures, which is different from soaking at room temperature. When conducting high-temperature oil splash tests, don't use room-temperature soaking data to deal with it; swelling only becomes apparent then.

The same formula, the workshop is hot in summer and cold in winter, so the process window needs to be adjusted accordingly. Have the supplier provide temperature ranges according to the season, and do not use the same set of parameters all year round.

First determine the operating temperature when selecting a model, then decide the temperature rating, and finally consider the price. If the temperature is set incorrectly or the rating is chosen wrong, no matter how low the price is, it would be a waste.

The ring turns yellow and deforms after some time, which is due to long-term hot air aging. Long-term heat aging is used to see how much performance remains, not just whether it can withstand a single high temperature.

The air fryer sealing ring must withstand 200°C hot air for a long time; high temperature resistance and aging resistance are essential criteria. Bake at high temperature for a week to see if it becomes sticky or shrinks; ordinary TPE cannot endure this, so a high-temperature resistant grade must be chosen.

The seal ring is more likely to collapse under high-temperature compression, and if compressed more than 30%, it will leak hot air. The compression amount is designed at 15%-25%, and only quick rebound can properly seal the door.

If the material hasn't changed, it may be due to the process; the mold temperature and material temperature window must be checked. Before precipitation and stickiness, check the oil type; don't blame the material right away. Use low-precipitation formulas with low-migration masterbatch.

Choose temperature-resistant grades for sealing rings; ordinary TPE cannot withstand 200°C hot air. High-temperature baking shows viscosity and shrinkage; pressure change is more prone to collapse at high temperatures.

Cologne customer case: odor returned and sealed in warehouse, substrate yield 98%.

An auto parts factory in Taizhou, finished air fryer sealing ring odor was returned downstream, and goods were stored in warehouse. Cologne cooperated to rematch the overmolding substrate and processing temperature, eliminating odor and stabilizing mass production yield at 98%. If the substrate matches correctly, the odor is cut off at the source—for odor issues, first check the substrate and oil.

Summary

Selection of air fryer sealing rings: test temperature resistance first, then check the process. If the material doesn't change or the parts are wrong, check the process window first.

Before pouring the material into the machine, the necessary tasks have already been done.

How much to reinforce, whether to add flame retardant, what temperature resistance level to achieve, and whether the dimensions are stable—once these judgments are set, the particle is just executing the conclusion once.
