LIQUID SILICONE-RUBBER - PROPERTIES AND A PPLICATIONS

Liquid Silicone Rubber is used to produce elastic parts by injection m olding. Its main properties range from high resistance against tempera tures (both, high and low temperatures) and chemicals to high transpar ency and good mechanical properties. It is applied in automotive parts , electronics, medical devices, food and household appliances and many other sectors. Liquid Silicone Rubber is processed fully automatic in an injection molding machine. This article summarizes applications, p rocessing and properties of LR.
