1. High Heat Resistance and Thermal Stability - Silicone is resistant up to 220 Degrees Centigrade, making it ideal for use in cooking and other high heat applications
2. Low Toxicity - Makes it very useful for Food Contact Applications.
3. Low Thermal Conductivity - Makes it very useful for Insulating applications.
4. Low Chemical Reactivity - Makes it useful for sealing applications. Please contact us to inquire about compatibility.
5. Does not support Microbiological growth and is Physiologically Inert - Making it ideal for Food and Medical applications.
6. Resistance to Oxygen, Ozone, and UV Light - Making it useful for outdoor applications.
7. High gas permeability - Making it ideal when aeration is required.
8. Does not stick to many substrate - Useful for a high number of food, sealing, and human contact applications.
