PROPERTIES OF SILICONE ELASTOMERS



Description: Outstanding resistance to high heat; excellent flexibility at low temperatures; low compression set; very good electrical insulator; excellent resistance to weather, ozone, sunlight and oxidation; superior color stability.

Limitations: Poor resistance to abrasion, tear and cut growth; low tensile strength; inferior resistance to oil, gasoline and solvents; poor resistance to alkalis and acids.

Chemistry: Methyl disiloxane, with vinyl- and/or phenyl- groups.

Trade Names: BAYSOLINE�, SILASTIC� , SILPLUS�
