High-performance elastomer with outstanding resistance to temperature and ageing.

• Types:

  • HTV (solid rubber, High Temperature Vulcanizing) → suitable for extrusion (profiles, hoses) and injection moulding (moulded parts).

  • LSR (Liquid Silicone Rubber) → liquid, for precision injection-moulded parts, also in 2K technology.

  • RTV (Room Temperature Vulcanizing) → one- or two-component, curing at room temperature, e.g. for sealing and bonding.

• Properties:

  • Temperature range: −50 to +250 °C (up to +300 °C for special grades).

  • Excellent resistance to weather, ozone and UV.

  • Remains flexible even at very low temperatures (down to −60 °C).

  • Electrically insulating or semi-conductive.

  • Odourless and tasteless, suitable for drinking water and food applications.

• Mechanical data:

  • Density: 1.05–1.35 g/cm³

  • Hardness: 5–90 Shore A

  • Tensile strength: 5–11 N/mm²

  • Elongation at break: 100–900 %

  • Tear resistance: 5–50 N/mm

  • Compression set (175 °C, 22h): 20–25 %

• Processing:

  • Extrusion: continuous profiles for doors, windows, façades, hoses.

  • Injection moulding: HTV or LSR parts, e.g. seals, grommets, membranes.

  • RTV: sealing and bonding applied directly during installation.

• Typical applications:

  • Door and window seals, façade profiles.

  • Sanitary seals and moulded parts.

  • Automotive and mobile applications.
