Silicones have unique properties which makes them different. In comparison to organic polymers, silicones have:

This exceptional combination of properties make silicone a suitable material to protect electronics in many different industries such as Automotive, Aerospace, Appliance, Communication, etc.

Silicone materials are commercially available in a variety of forms to  protect electronics often classified in 4 main families:

1)    Coatings

2)    Potting: (a) Gels, (b) Elastomers, (c) Foams

3)    Adhesives

4)    Thermally conductive materials: (a) Adhesives, (b) Gap Filler, (c) Greases, (d) Encapsulants

Multiple chemistries are available to crosslink the material with or without temperature, mono or bicomponent. The selection of the chemistry is made according to the performance, the application, and the processing needs.

Silicone materials in electronics enhance performance providing reliability and safety with an ease of processing. This is especially true should material if selection and testing are made  properly. Our services help with the material selection and the test design to assure a long life in the application without going thru expensive and long-lasting series of unnecessary testing and characterisation.
