Elkem (Bluestar Silicones) CAF® 1 Silicone Rubber
Categories: Polymer; Thermoset; Silicone; Silicone Rubber
Material Notes: Description: CAF 1 and CAF 1 Extra Fluid are one component room temperature curing silicone elastomers:
  • Acetic.
  • Variable rheology, from self-leveling to fluid, from CAF 1 to CAF 1 Extra Fluid.
  • Red.
Applications: CAF 1 and CAF 1 Extra Fluid are mainly used in sealing and bonding applications in which low viscosity is required. CAF 1 and CAF 1 Extra Fluid are notably used for:
  • Sealing of electrical heating elements (CAF 1 Extra Fluid).
  • Engine sealing in automotive after sales service (CAF 1).
  • General maintenance in the aeronautics industry (CAF 1).
Advantages: CAF 1 and CAF 1 Extra Fluid cure quickly and have very good resistance to high temperature. CAF 1 and CAF 1 Extra Fluid therefore ensure perfect sealing and bonding between different materials subject to thermal strain. CAF 1 and CAF 1 Extra Fluid also have high resistance to chemical agents.
