RTV-2 silicone thermal barrier | Wacker
ELASTOSIL RT 775
Product description:
ELASTOSIL® RT 775 by Wacker is a non-slump, condensation curing RTV-2 silicone. When processed with a curing agent of the WACKER® catalyst T 77 series, a self bonding and durable silicone rubber is formed. Cured ELASTOSIL® RT 775 shows long-term stability against weathering, moisture and UV light. Under extreme heat exposure ELASTOSIL® RT 775 becomes a solid ceramic that resists as a thermal barrier over a long period of time. For example: thermal propagation of an EV battery module.
Properties:
Uncured:
- Non-slump paste
- Medium to fast curing at room temperature
Cured:
- To be cured with WACKER catalyst T 77 or WACKER catalyst T 77 PLUS (contact WACKER for further curing data)
- Medium hardness
- Primerless adhesion to many substrates (glass, ceramics, metals, plastics and powder coatings)
- Suitable as thermal barrier at extreme conditions
- Becomes a hard ceramic under extreme heat (e.g. thermal propagation of a battery module)
