Eyes on the skies
In the aviation and aerospace industry, pilots and astronauts rely on avionics systems to safely get them from point a to point b. Fuel monitoring, navigation, communications and instrument lighting all play a vital role in a successful flight or space mission, so it’s of the utmost importance that these systems perform effectively.
Whether you’re looking for technology that performs in the air, the stratosphere or space, silicone materials from Dow are ready for the ride.
Why silicones?
Optically clear silicone materials resist temperature, humidity and other environmental extremes, improving protection and performance of lights and displays from the cockpit through the cabins. Thermally and electrically conductive silicone materials further the protection of avionics systems by cooling and shielding equipment from electromagnetic interference.
Which silicones?
DOWSIL™ VE-6001 UV-T Optical Bonding is a one-part silicone-based UV-curable precision optical bonding product that provides excellent adhesion, reliability and processability for display devices requiring high-reliability performance.
DOWSIL™ EC-6601 Electrically Conductive Adhesive provides strong electromagnetic shielding across a wide range of frequencies with durable mechanical and conductive properties over time.
