Compounding silicone
sponge for you

Silicone and fluorosilicone elastomers can be converted into sponge. SILMIX® unique sponge technology can be cured with peroxide or platinum. We produce silicone sponge of densities below 0.5 g/cm³ and can meet the scope of ASTM D1056 specifications.

Typical
applications

Our high-quality silicone sponge can replace silicone rubber when compressibility and light weight are desirable. Typical applications include:

  • Gap fillers and lightweight profiles for aerospace applications
  • Highly compressible sealing strips and silicone gaskets
  • Enclosure sealing, architectural seals and profiles
  • Lightweight wires and cables
