Techsil Introduce SnapSil TN8000 - A Flame Retardant & Reliable Silicone Sealant
SnapSil TN8000, a one-component silicone adhesive, cures at room temperature forming a resilient flame-retardant rubber. Easy to apply and versatile, it can adhere to many materials such as metals, plastics, glass and ceramics without the use of primers. Insulating and waterproof, it can be considered for use in a wide array of industrial sealing and bonding applications such as electronics, solar and communications devices. Techsil have just launched SnapSil TN8000 silicone adhesive into the UK market. It is a very versatile, high performance silicone adhesive sealant that is manufactured by Momentive Performance Materials in Japan - one of the world's leading manufacturer of RTV silicones. SnapSil TN8000 adhesive is a one-component condensation-curing silicone rubber developed for sealing. It has a thixotropic paste consistency and exhibits excellent corrosion-free adhesion to many substrates such as metals (including copper), plastics, PPO/PPE, ceramics and glass without the use of primers. Key Features and Typical Benefits - Primerless adhesion to many substrates - High strength and elongation - Three colour options: White, Black, Grey - Fast room temperature cure and neutral alkoxy cure type - All grades are flame retardant - UL94HB classified - Excellent adhesion after extended aging - Impressive dielectric properties - Excellent properties after high temperature & humidity (85C/85%RH) - Very stable in storage Potential Applications include: Sealing and bonding for Solar/PV module components; Insulating adhesive sealing and fixing for electrical and electronic parts; Waterproof sealant for electrical, electronic and communication equipment; General adhesive for metals, glass, plastics, etc. From automotive to healthcare, from electronics to construction, Momentive's silicone materials are practically everywhere you look.
