Silicone Elastomers

Silicone elastomers have a unique combination of properties not found with organic elastomers, such as stability over a very wide temperature range, good electrical properties and environmental resistance, no smell or taste, high biocompatibility, low softness without plasticisers, and high colourability and transparency. Despite their relatively high cost, silicone elastomers are being increasingly used for applications where durability and safety in use are particularly important such as: automotive, electrical and electronic, domestic appliances, food processing, medical devices and baby bottle teats. This conference aims to cover the whole range of silicone elastomer materials, including high temperature vulcanised (HTV), room temperature vulcanised (RTV) and liquid silicone rubber (LSR). This leading industry event for the Silicone Elastomers industry will bring together manufacturers, processors, designers and researchers with a common interest in silicone elastomer materials, applications and processing, to give up-to-the-minute information on the latest developments and provide ample networking opportunities with an international peer group.
