Silicone (VMQ) offers a number of unique properties: it is noted for its wide temperature range from -100°C to +260°C; they have the best low-temperature flexibility compared to all other elastomers; good ozone and weather resistance; can be compounded to be either electrically insulating or conductive; it is very clean and is often used in food and medical applications. In addition Silicone has good resistance to compression set. However, Silicone should not be used for dynamic applications as they have a low tensile strength, poor tear strength and abrasion resistance.
