Silicone Rubber Grades, High-Voltage

Wacker Metroark Chemicals offers elastomeric insulating materials for electrifying applications. Powersil silicone rubber grades are a staple of the power transmission and distribution industry. They not only contain the good properties of Elastosil, but have also been tailored to the needs of high voltage technology, e.g., lasting surface hydrophobicity, reasons why Powersil is one of the best elastomeric insulating materials around. The company can offer these highly specialised silicone rubber grades as Powersil solid silicone and as Powersil XLR for economic manufacturing of very large parts, such as insulators. Special features: long-term resistance to weathering and hostile environments (industrial, coastal and desert climates); very good dielectric properties; high tracking resistance and arcing resistance; long-term hydrophobicity (transfer and regeneration of water repellence); low-temperature flexibility down to -45?C; and retention of surface water-repellence for open-air applications.
