-
Processed by liquid
injection molding
Fluoro
Liquid Silicone Rubbers (F-LSR) – Fully fluorinated two-part
pumpable silicone materials. F-LSR combines the performance of FSR with the
processing benefits of an LSR.
Silicone Rubber Bases
– Standard, high consistency, non-customizable materials offered for sale at
the XIAMETER®
brand website; an economical choice for those who are able to purchase
materials in large, bulk quantities, do not require technical or sales support,
and have no special shipping requirements
Primers
– Dilute solutions of silane coupling agents and other
active ingredients. To help you ensure optimal bonding of silicone rubbers, Dow
Corning can test your substrate.
Additives
– To enhance processing and performance characteristics,
such as viscosity, heat stability, and flame retardancy.
