Elkem (Bluestar Silicones) CAF® 3 Silicone Rubber
Categories: Polymer; Thermoset; Silicone; Silicone Rubber

Material Notes: Description: CAF 3 is a one component, flowing silicone elastomer which cures at room temperature on contact with atmospheric humidity. The product is:
  • Acetic.
  • Flowing.
  • Translucent.
Applications: CAF 3 is mainly used in industrial sealing and bonding applications when requiring a flowing product. CAF 3 is notably used for:
  • potting and insulation of electronic sensors,
  • bonding of various materials,
  • general maintenance in industry
Advantages: CAF 3 is quick curing, has very good mechanical properties and good high temperature resistance. CAF 3 therefore provides perfect assembly and complete sealing between different materials subject to thermal stresses. CAF 3 also has good resistance to chemical agents.
