SILCHEM's Silicone Products Offer Many Advantages Silicones have a unique chemical structure, which make them resistant to high temperature extremes, chemical attack and oxidation. These characteristics contribute to silicone's attractiveness and present many possibilities for service applications which require these unique overall attributes.

Wide Temperature Range
Whether high or low temperature, silicone products far surpass conventional organic materials. From -75ºC to 260ºC (-103ºF to +500ºF).

Chemical Inertness
Silicones are chemically inert to most common materials making them effective as mold release agents.

Low Flammability
Flash points in the range of 205ºC to 260ºC (400ºF to 500ºF) are typical for most silicone fluids.

Low Surface Tension
Silicone based anti-foams have unusually low surface tension which provides unequaled, high efficiency defoaming and high surface activity.

Non-Corrosive
Silicone fluids do not contain chemicals which tend to cause corrosion or staining.

Silicone fluids typically are clear, inert, tasteless, colorless and non-hazardous.
