Dowsil Sylgard182 PDMS Silicone Elastomer​ Transparent

​​Product Overview​​
Dowsil Sylgard 182 is a two-part, 10:1 mix ratio silicone elastomer known for its transparency, long pot life, and ease of use. It cures to form a flexible, low-stress elastomer without generating exotherm during the curing process. This product is designed for a wide range of industrial applications where reliable electrical insulation and mechanical flexibility are required.

Product Description​​
Dowsil Sylgard 182 is a transparent silicone encapsulant that cures to a flexible elastomer, making it ideal for protecting electrical and PCB systems. It offers excellent dielectric properties, low stress, and deep section cure capabilities. The product is easy to mix, dispense, and repair, and it does not require a primer for adhesion, simplifying the application process. Its transparency allows for easy inspection of boards and parts, ensuring quality control during manufacturing.

Special Attributes​​
One of the standout features of Dowsil Sylgard 182 is its ability to cure without exotherm, which ensures consistent curing regardless of the thickness of the material or the degree of confinement. This makes it suitable for applications where thermal management is critical. Additionally, the product is repairable, allowing for easy salvage and rework of damaged or defective units. Its long pot life of 8 hours at 25°C provides ample time for processing, and it can be heat-cured at temperatures as low as 100°C for faster curing. The cured material has a low dielectric constant and dissipation factor, making it an excellent choice for high-frequency applications.

​​Application Scenarios​​
Dowsil Sylgard 182 is widely used in various industrial applications, including power supplies, connectors, sensors, industrial controls, transformers, amplifiers, and high-voltage resistor packs. It is also used as an adhesive for solar cells and for handling beam lead integrated circuits during processing. Its flexibility and repairability make it suitable for applications where components may need to be reworked or repaired. The product's ability to cure without exotherm and its transparency make it ideal for applications requiring precise inspection and thermal management.
