Silicones, Silicone-Organic Hybrids and Silanes

Versatile materials tailorable for an array of demanding applications

Compared to organic-based materials, silicone-based materials typically enable more demanding applications, from those operating at extreme temperatures, to those under harsh environmental conditions for long durations. They are used as additives that provide benefits like the ones below and many more. 

Silicones are used across a variety of markets and applications including the ones listed below. They can also be found in a number of forms such as adhesives, sealants, rubber, emulsions, powders, fluids, and more.
