The complete ranges of properties found in the family of synthetic elastomers are usually lacking in any one type of material. Each formulation has a primary feature and, although it may also offer high performance in many other areas, there will be a trade-off in at least one area.

To assist in making an initial material choice, review the resistance properties and the physical properties of each. Further, more specific details for each material can be found in the pages following.

For your convenience, we show a typical ASTM D2000 line call-out for Vansil® silicone materials for your review. For details of specifying your materials via the ASTM method, please contact us.
