Silicones, silicone oils, sprays
Casting and potting resinsPractical expertise
How do silicone systems differ? When is potting suitable, and when is a protective coating appropriate? And what is important when mixing? In the knowledge center, you will find explanations and processing instructions for the materials in our product range.
Start by Application
Protecting Electronics
A circuit board in a closed device is exposed to different influences than an assembly in the open air.
Bonding and sealing
Superglue, epoxy or elastic sealant: The products differ in their curing process and the behavior of the finished bond.
Potting and Encapsulation
When casting, the processing influences the final result: mixing ratio, temperature and quantity added are just as important as the choice of resin.
Lubricating and releasing
A lubricant should reduce friction and wear.
Bonding Instead of Welding
Adhesive bonding enables connections between different materials and can transfer forces over a surface.
Molding and casting
It all starts with the original and the question of what should be created from it.
Aerospace and Defense
For approved materials, the exact specifications must be included with the order.
Further application entry points (heat dissipation, electrical insulation) are added continuously — until then, the topic worlds will guide you to your goal.
