Silicone compounds are a natural fit for many PFAS applications.

QCL hyperspectral imaging identifies silicone oil on surfaces, combining infrared spectroscopy with spatial mapping to support contamination detection and process control.

Ongoing supply chain disruption is driving another round of increases across silicone product lines.

This silicone primer enhances bonding between liquid silicone rubber and challenging substrates in medical, automotive and electronics applications.

A new thermal additive enhances energy efficiency and fire resistance, reducing heat absorption, improving emissivity, and meeting stringent environmental and building performance standards.

Enhanced slip, lower surface tension and better tape release — these silicone additives help radiation-curable coatings deliver long-term reliability.

The company is exploring a new method to eliminate carbon emissions from its silicon production process.

For those looking to replace PFAS in their coatings formulations, this article discusses some experiments and data that show how organosilicones compare to PFAS compounds in critical performance criteria such as low surface tension/surface energy, COF, water repellency, oil repellency, stain resistance, and chemical stability.

The facility, set to be completed at the end of 2024, will more than double the current capacity from the company's Toronto and Mississauga plants.
