Rubber sealing materials are important components of the spacecraft. However， they are still limited by their aging tendency and failure risk in the complex service environment.Therefore，it is of great significance to explore the storage life of rubber sealing materials. Combined with the applications of rubber sealing materials in space products， the research status and main technical methods of the storage life are introduced， and the typical prediction methods of accelerated storage life of sealing materials are analyzed.Moreover，the future research directions are summarized according to the urgent practical needs of space explorations.
