Silicone elastomer provides clarity for light transmission
A two part water, clear liquid silicone elastomer, offering outstanding moisture and temperature resistance, has been released by Intertronics. Alongside a non-yellowing catalyst system, the Opti-tec 7020 features a low viscosity which allows ease of flow around complex parts, enabling electrical insulation and shock protection.
The silicone elastomer, which withstands operational stress, exhibits a refractive index of 1.406 and a thermal operating range of -60 to +200°C when cured. Due to its white colouring and non-yellowing catalyst system, the Opti-tec 7020 provides clarity for light transmission during the potting of sensitive optoelectronic components such as LEDs, displays and solar panels.
