Silicone Sealant Formula

Silicon sealant is a kind of silicone adhesive that already applied in many application use. Beside this adhesive is used for sealant and adhesives, this silicone materials also use to make a doll. The characteristic of this material is soft like rubber so that use to make skin doll and can be colored like human skin.



The most basic class of silicones is the conventional inert polydimethylsiloxane series. They are trimethylsiloxy terminated and possess no reactive chemical functionality. These fluids find utility as plasticisers, lubricants, defoamers, in high temperature baths, and cosmetic products. Typical service temperatures are to 250° celsius. UCT offers the full line of these materials from very low to gum like viscosities.

Although conventional fluids are stable thermally to 250° celsius, many high performance coating applications require higher temperature stability. Introduction of aromatic groups (phenyl rings) raises thermal stability to greater than 300° celsius. The indices of refraction and the rigidity of cured resins are also increased over conventional fluids. Figure 2 describes these materials in more detail. They are available with curable vinyl terminals at the polymer terminals and containing variable viscosities and mole percentages of phenyl groups. The most utilized UCT product line of curable aromatic silicones is the PS732-PS793 series of vinyl terminated fluids.

The product of silicones sealant for example that produce by Dow Chemicals Have specification as follows:
