Withstand
temperature extremes
Resist searing heat and freezing cold.
If you are manufacturing or designing a product that must retain its physical
properties through heat, cold, or extreme shifts in temperature, depend on the
proven performance of
SILASTIC® brand silicone elastomers.
Silastic silicone elastomers have a wider operating
temperature range than most organic elastomers. They:
-
Are more resistant to degradation – the loss of physical property
performance when exposed to high or low temperatures
-
Do not become soft and irreversibly deform when subjected to temperatures
>100°C (>212°F)
-
Retain their natural flexibility and continue to perform at low
temperatures that would cause most organic elastomers to become brittle
-
Resist compression set at both high and low temperatures
-
Maintain their properties longer at higher temperatures
Meet a wide range of global industry specifications and performance
tests
Silastic silicone elastomers can be tailored or custom compounded to
meet a wide range of temperature resistance requirements, including high heat,
heat aging, fire resistance, and flame retardancy.
