What's
New At Silicones, Inc.
Silicones,
Inc. is constantly developing products for new applications, improving
our existing products and researching new technologies that might be useful
for silicones. The nomenclature we use is XT
for experimental tin catalyzed products and XP
for experimental platinum catalyzed products. Some of the experimental
products become standard grades, e.g., GI-245, GI-298 and GI-384 all began
as experimental products that were developed for a specific application.
Some recent product developments are shown below:
XP-149
– Optically clear, fast-curing, 10:1 mix ratio for electrical potting and
encapsulating.
XP-163
– High durometer foam used in aerospace applications.
XP-268
– High modulus, high durometer (>70) addition cure system. Download
