NuSil expands line of aircraft materials

By Janice Wood · June 18, 2009 ·

NuSil Technology, which manufactures silicone-based materials for the aerospace and aircraft industries, has extended its line of adhesives and sealants to include R-3930, a fluorosilicone, one-part silicone elastomer designed to cure under ambient conditions.

Tested alongside fuels, such as JP8 and DiEGME, NuSil’s R-3930 is designed for coating, sealing and bonding applications requiring fuel or solvent resistance. The elastomer is a room temperature vulcanizing (RTV) silicone elastomer dispersed in tertbutyl (T-butyl) acetate with a wide operating temperature range.

For more information: 805-684-8780 or Nusil.com.
