Moldmaker Explores New LSR Molding Technologies
Can liquid silicone rubber (LSR ) be overmolded onto polypropylene?
-
Fluorinated LSR Handles Fuels and Harsh Chemicals
A new fully fluorinated liquid silicone rubber from Dow Corning, Midland, Mich., combines the easy processing of LSR and the high temperature and fuel resistance of fluorosilicone rubber (FSR). Silastic 100% F-LSR is a two-part injection moldable elastomer for automotive engine components.

Injection Molding LSR: Three 'M's of Innovation: Mega, Micro, and Multi
Liquid silicone rubber is breaking out of its niche into a broader array of applications, helped by new developments in materials, machinery, and processing. Larger parts, micro-parts, foams, and multi-color or multi-material combinations are key areas of innovation.
-
Five novel silicone surfactants that boast enhanced performance with flexible and molded PUR foams are available from Dow Corning Corp., Midland, Mich.
-
New liquid silicone rubber grades from Dow Corning, Midland, Mich., are said to offer high clarity, superior mechanical properties, and shorter molding cycles.
