F, excellent high humidity performance, outstanding chemical, environmental, and solvent resistance, and vibration dampening protection. These industries include adhesives, sealants, gels, encapsulants and foams. When choosing RTV silicones for an end-use application, consideration must be given to the method of product dispensing, production environment, as well as the performance criteria of the final use. They can be dispensed in the form of a thin bead or into a large cavity several feet thick.
Products created from rtv silicones can flow like water or have the consistency of paste.
Some RTV silicones are hard and rigid while others have the consistency of gelatin. These silicones use either atmospheric moisture or heat to cure and offer primerless adhesion to many substrates. Click above to review these policies.
