Abstract

An insulating silicone rubber composition superior in reliability is provided that has excellent antistatic property while being free from bleeding, blooming, and discoloration. The insulating silicone rubber contains silicone rubber, ionic liquid having an alkoxysilyl group, and preferably a crosslinking agent. The content of the ionic liquid is preferably within a range from 0.001 to 5 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the total amount of the silicone rubber and the crosslinking agent.
