Silicone Adhesive Sealants and Abhesives

  • Chapter
Handbook of Adhesives

Abstract

Silicones are synthetic polymeric materials that possess an extraordinarily wide range of physical properties. They can be low- or high-viscosity liquids, solid resins, or vulcanizable gums. As a class of substances, silicones are characteristically very resistant to extremes of temperature, to ultraviolet and infrared radiation, and to oxidative degradation. They display an unusual combination of organic and inorganic chemical properties that are due to their unique molecular structure of alternating silicon and oxygen atoms; this polysiloxane chemical structure is common to all silicones.
