Silicones are organic-inorganic polymers consisting of silicon, carbon, oxygen and hydrogen. Its unique chemical structure results in unique properties which makes them extremely versatile.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
* Resistance to age, sunlight, moisture and temperature extremes - long service life
* Chemical resistance - stable
* Outstanding heat stability - can be used in applications where organic materials would melt or decompose
* Feature a combination of physical properties not found in other polymers
* Unique sensory & lubricity
* Safe and easy to use
