BORFLEX® has developed BORSIL, a range of silicone elastomers for use in extreme temperature and chemical conditions (fluorinated silicones). Different families of silicones can be distinguished: - Standard temperature silicones with a continuous temperature range of -50°C to +200°C which can be increased to 250°C, - High-tear silicones, these are stan- dard silicones with a high tear strength, - high resilience silicones with low DRC (compression set), - Low-temperature silicones with a continuous temperature resistance of -110°C to +200°C, - THT (very high temperature) silicones with a continuous temperature resistance of -50°C to +300°C, - electrically and thermally conductive silicones, "smart" silicones of the photoluminescent type (three colors available) or thermochromic type (choice of temperature and the transition color, programmable three colors and three temperatures). BORFLEX® silicones are found in in many markets. They can meet aeronautical specifications 50, 52, 53 and 54 for silicones, and 61 and 63 for fluorinated silicones.
