SiIcoat - Highly Flowable RTV Adhesive Sealant
Silcoat
is a neutral curing, 1 part no mix, highly flowable silicone
rubber sealing compound which cures at room temperature in
reaction with moisture to form a tough but flexible silicone
rubber. Unlike many other RTV's this product does not give
off any acid and is therefore safe to use in electronics and
applications where non corrosion of the substrate is
paramount. Further benefits of this is that there is no
offensive vinegar like odour and fast tack free time.
Typical uses are:
●
Bonding, sealing, insulating and Coating electronic
components, copper coils & bare wires
●
Making temperature, vibration and chemical resistant seals /
gaskets
●
High temperature sealing in air ducting and flexible hosing
●
Heavy duty protection of PCB’s and electronic equipment in
hazardous environments
●
Sealing very narrow gaps & cracks not usually possible with
standard RTV's
Adhesion
Silcoat bonds exceptionally well to glass, silicone
rubber, metals including copper & aluminium and most rigid
plastics.
Silcoat is not suitable for bonding PTFE,
polyethelene, polypropylene or plasticised PVC . Please
contact our technical department for further information.
Chemical resistance
Excellent tolerance to alkalis, mineral oils, ethyl alcohol,
dilute acids, boiling water, ozone and UV light.
Incidental contact with fuels is acceptable but not
recommended for continuous immersion. |
