Durable and flame retardant, Bisco silicones meet the most stringent industry standards worldwide for flame, smoke and toxicity (FS and T) resistance.
Both open- and closed-cell offerings withstand temperatures from -55 to +204C.
They are available in a wide range of densities, thicknesses and composites.
Bisco silicone's soft and firm products possess unsurpassed compression-set resistance and maintain physical properties throughout the service life of the vehicle.
These materials demonstrate low water absorption and excellent environmental resistance to UV light, ozone, and corrosion.
They also provide design solutions for vibration damping, shock absorption, and sealing.
Available in roll form, with or without adhesives, these silicones are easily fabricated into various shapes and are versatile enough to satisfy most mass transit and aerospace design applications.
Composite uses include fire barriers, reflective heat shields, EMI/RFI sound barriers, and many others.
Bisco silicones are manufactured within an ISO9001 certified facility in Carol Stream, Illinois, and are available worldwide through an extensive distribution network.
