| Pedestrian Protection – The needs for safe
pedestrian protection will be growing significantly, partially driven by
legislation. Dow Corning is active in this market segment, and offers photonics
materials, as well as materials to protect electronics, electro-optic
components and electro-optic modules. Click below to learn more about the
material solutions offered, or contact us at your convenience. |
 | LED Materials |
| These materials, designed for
High-Brightness LED packages, are used for protection, light-extraction,
thermal management and as molded lenses to direct light output. |
| Optical assembly
materials |  |
| Dow Corning silicon-based materials
have unique properties that make them well suited for use in a variety of
optical devices, including high performance optical components, optical data
storage, optical fiber coatings, and high brightness LED packaging. |
 | Gels |
| Gels are a special class of
encapsulants that cure to an extremely soft material. Cured gels retain much of
the stress relief and self-healing qualities of a liquid while providing the
dimensional stability of an elastomer. |
| Adhesives and
Sealants |  |
| Adhesives are used primarily to attach
components, such as module lids and baseplates, within electronic modules and
to seal openings in a module to exclude dirt, water or other contaminants. |
