RDAbbott teamed up with Cancarb and ARLANXEO to explore elastomer sealing performance advancements using Thermax^® N990 and X_Butyl^® Bromobutyl designed for hydrogen fuel system technologies.

German RepRap’s new L320 Liquid Additive Manufacturing (LAM) 3D printer is a real “Game Changer” for 3D printing with liquid silicone rubber.

LORD^® In-Mold Bonding (IMB™) liquid silicone rubber (LSR) adhesives are non-tacky polymer-based coatings that when applied to a substrate provide a structural bond to a rigid or elastomeric polymer, which is formed under heat and pressure. LORD IMB 3000 series adhesives are designed for bonding platinum-cured silicone rubber to a variety of thermoplastic and metal substrates during the injection molding process.

Dow presenta las bases de caucho de silicona fluorada SILASTIC™ con un rendimiento optimizado para demandas competitivas.

PREMIX^® is a historical brand of polymer-bound materials from RDC S.r.l that has been in the marketplace since 1974.

Improved processing and durability performance in architectural sealing using Cancarb’s Thermax^® N990 and ARLANXEO’s Keltan^® EPDM.

DOWSIL™ Moldable Optical Silicones provide unprecedented design freedom and performance for challenging applications such as automotive, general, professional and consumer lighting and outdoor displays.

At a time when technical support is becoming tough to find, it’s good to know that 3M maintains state-of-the-art testing and analytical labs, pilot manufacturing facilities, and most important, an experienced staff of application engineers.

For brighter, more energy-efficient, more unique and longer-lasting lighting systems, we highly recommend you take a look at Dow’s innovative, high-performance silicone materials for protection and assembly and secondary optics.

This product comparison guide is designed to address the basic considerations when formulating a fluoroelastomer compound: “What is the environment?” “What is the application?” “What is the manufacturing process?” and “What is the part profile?”  The answers to these questions will help narrow your search for a fluoroelastomer  that can deliver optimal performance.
