  • Outgassing of Silicone Elastomers
    The performance advantages of silicone elastomers are widely known. Silicone provides unique characteristics that allow it to be used in a broad range of applications, including applications serving continuous extreme conditions of temperature and pressure. One design-limiting aspect of silicone
  • Silicone O-Rings and Sealing Devices Guide
    Silicone is an elastomer that remains stable, flexible, and non-reactive in extreme conditions, making it ideal for seals, gaskets, and O-rings. O-rings are molded products placed between two mechanical parts to create a tight seal for preventing fluid or gas leakage and keeping out contaminants
  • Outlining Silicone Coated Rope
    Silicone rubbers are highly stable elastomers that are broadly used in industrial engineering and sealing applications.
  • Silicone Benefits & Uses
    Five Reasons to Switch to Silicone for Industrial Rubber Parts. UV & Ozone Resistance. Extreme Cold & High Heat Endurance. Range of Durometers. Color Options. Custom Variations. From pharmaceuticals to food and beverage manufacturing, silicone is a popular elastomer.
  • The Permeability Characteristics of Silicone Rubber
    Silicone rubber is universally regarded as the best-in-class elastomer for extreme environments. In addition, silicone rubber is one of the most permeable elastomers. This property is a key advantage for silicone rubber in many design situations. However, some applications which require silicone
  • Silicone Rubber Flame Resistance
    chemicals that specifically target impedance of the combustion process. The level of flame resistance required from a material is specific to the end application and can be measured by one of the many test methods available. Silicone rubber is often selected as the design elastomer because of its
  • Research Progress in Calenderable Fluorosilicone with Excellent Fuel Resistance
    resistance and low temperature flexibility, fluorosilicone is compared to other elastomers such as fluorocarbon rubber (FKM) and standard silicone rubber (MQ/VMQ/PVMQ). The application advantages and disadvantages of utilizing fluorosilicones are discussed. Arlon has developed a cost effective, calenderable
  • Why You Should Rethink Your PTFE/Teflon (R) Tri-clamp (R) Sanitary Gaskets
    Polytetrafluoroethylene, better known as PTFE, or by its brand name Teflon (R), is commonly used as a sanitary gasket in pipe connectors within process lines. PTFE gaskets are often used in demanding sanitary environments where traditional elastomers such as EPDM, NBR and Silicone are not suitable
