SILICONE

TLE-7
DESCRIPTION

What is silicone?
A synthetic polymer made of alternating silicon and oxygen atoms,
along with other elements such as carbon and hydrogen. Silicone can
be produced in a variety of forms, each of which is manufactured with
a key set of properties to suit the intended application. Silicones have
exceptionally high thermal stability (their properties remain unchanged
even at extreme temperatures), can repel water or absorb it, can act as
electrical conductors or insulators, are flexible and durable, can be
used to promote adhesion or lubrication, and are chemically resistant.
DESCRIPTION

In labelling, silicone is the standard release agent


used in pressure sensitive constructions to facilitate
the removal of a label from its backing sheet. It is also
used in some adhesives due to its resistance to heat,
light, moisture, and various chemicals, and is also used
as an additive in printing inks to improve flow.
USES OF SILICONE

Silicones are used in sealants, adhesives,


lubricants, medicine, cooking utensils, thermal
insulation, and electrical insulation. Some common
forms include silicone oil, silicone grease, silicone
rubber, silicone resin, and silicone caulk .

USES OF SILICONE

Silicone rubber is an elastomer (rubber-like material) composed


of silicone—itself a polymer—containing silicon together with
carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Silicone rubbers are widely used in
industry, and there are multiple formulations. Silicone rubbers are
often one- or two-part polymers, and may contain fillers to improve
properties or reduce cost.
USES OF SILICONE

A silicone oil is any liquid polymerized siloxane with organic side


chains. The most important member is polydimethylsiloxane. These
polymers are of commercial..
USES OF SILICONE

Silicone resins are a type of silicone material which is formed by


branched, cage-like oligosiloxanes with the general
formula of RnSiXmOy,
