Silicone Rubber is physiologically inert, thus making it the preferred choice of all medical, pharmaceutical and food processing industries. Silicones have comparatively low mechanical properties,
tensile strength, elongation and tear strength, however they keep constant even at high temperature but should not be used with high pressure steam. Its resistance to oils and hydrocarbon products
is fairly limited and similar to that of Chloroprene rubbers. Reasonable resistance to a whole range of general chemical products, but acids, alkalis, esters and ketone should be avoided. Silicone
has excellent resistance to heat (dry air), at +2000C intermittent. It remains flexible at low temperature of -700C and it also resistant to ultra-violent light, Ozone and
weathering. Exhibits low inflammability and low smoke toxicity. It has good electrical insulation properties.
