Derived from aerospace technology, silicone film adhesives are elastomeric materials that use a unique filler to obtain superior mechanical and optical properties. The small particle size of the filler reinforces the silicone polymer matrix and also results in an optically transparent adhesive. These film adhesives offer favorable material properties as well as strong adhesion to many substrates. Both the material and adhesion properties are consistent over a broad range of temperatures and humidity. Consistent material properties arise partly because silicone film adhesives have glass-transition temperatures that are well below the typical operating-temperature range for automotive applications (-40°C to 150°C). The low glass-transition temperature ensures that silicone film adhesives remain in the rubbery state.
