Abstract With laserinduced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS), the basic sytheses of the room temperaturevulcanized silicone rubber and the high temperature-vulcanized silicone rubber recently arranged examples were broke down in this paper. The LIBS spectra demonstrated that carbon (C), oxygen (O), aluminum (Al), silicon (Si), press (Fe), and zinc (Zn) were contained in the specimens; predictable with the energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) comes about. With scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the micromorphology and the profundity of the removal pits were watched. The pits ’sizes were just around 200?400 μm, and there was about no distinction between the hydrophobicity of the nonablated zone and the removed territory, and the static contact edge of the cavities was considerably bigger than that of the nonablated region, implying that the LIBS examination was practically nondestructive. The profundity of the removal pits indicated linearity association with the laser heartbeat number that would help a considerable measure in the in situ investigation. Expanding the laser energy of the shot, the force of spectra lines of unequivocal component and the electron number density would increment in the meantime. The review result demonstrated that the LIBS would be a promising component investigation method of silicone rubber particularly on line, and the piece of the composites could be plainly watched.
