For electronic and automotive applications, protecting components from moisture and debris as well as efficient heat transfer are key criteria in material selection.
Silicone elastomers feature versatile properties and functionality and are also proven to withstand harsh conditions.
CHT's silicone experts work closely with customers in the Electronics and Transportation sector and help manufacturers achieve top design requirements such as thermal management, environmental protection, weight reduction, and thermal runaway mitigation.
CHT manufactures a range of silicone potting compounds, encapsulants, 1-part adhesives, conformal coatings, silicone foam, and custom formulations.

CHT''s QSil 212 is an optically clear, high strength, 2-component addition cure silicone elastomer which will cure at room temperature or at elevated temperatures. Its low viscosity enables ease of flow around complex parts to provide electrical insulation and shock resistance. QSil 212 has high optical transmittance in the UVC wavelength range of 200 to 280 nm making this an ideal product choice for LEDs, LCD displays and sensor applications.

Key properties include:

• Optically clear, non-yellowing
• Low viscosity for easy dispensing
• Fast room temperature cure
• Low linear shrinkage
