"How to Evaluate Fluorosilicone Properties for Mission-Critical Applications"

Fluorosilicones deliver fuel resistance, thermal stability, and flexibility in extreme environments. This white paper explores key properties, application factors, and validation methods to guide material selection for mission-critical aerospace and defense applications.

The development and application of fluorosilicates in aviation dates back to the 1960s, when the U.S. Air Force discovered that standard, dimethyl-based silicone sealants, coatings, and other materials used in aircraft exposed to fuels were prematurely failing. Today, fluorosilicone coatings, molding compounds, adhesives, and other materials are widely utilized in both military and commercial aircraft.

This white paper provides valuable insights into the following key topics:
o Key performance factors to consider when selecting fluorosilicones
o Thermal stability and weight loss of fluorosilicones
o Swell testing results for fluorosilicones
