1. Product Overview

DOWSIL™ 3-6548 RTV Silicone Foam is a two-part, room-temperature vulcanizing (RTV) silicone foam that expands upon curing to form a soft, low-density, and resilient foam. It provides excellent sealing, cushioning, and insulation properties while offering resistance to environmental factors such as moisture, chemicals, and extreme temperatures. This material is commonly used in applications requiring lightweight, flexible, and durable protection.


2. Applications

  • Sealing & Gasketing: Used in enclosures, electronic housings, and automotive applications to prevent dust, moisture, and contaminants from entering.
  • Vibration Dampening: Absorbs shocks and vibrations in sensitive electronic components and automotive parts.
  • Thermal & Electrical Insulation: Provides high-performance insulation in electrical and electronic devices.
  • Aerospace & Automotive: Suitable for applications requiring lightweight, high-performance materials with good environmental resistance.
  • Flame Retardant Applications: Meets UL 94 V-0 standards for flame resistance, making it ideal for safety-critical applications.
