Chemical Designation: Polysiloxane
Molded silicone rubber is often used in many
automotive, appliance, electronic, and aerospace
applications where resistance to temperature
extremes are necessary.
Silicone Rubber has a lower tensile strength than
most other polymer/elastomers. Solvents,
concentrated acids and oils tend to break it down.
Use of Silicone Rubber where extreme temperature
resistance is not essential is discouraged because
of cost. |
