Fireproof fabrics are critical safety barriers, and their performance is inseparable from the quality of protection they provide. A purpose-developed addition-cure silicone for high-strength fireproof fabrics—boasting high strength, easy application, and superior adhesion—now builds an even sturdier safety wall for these materials, becoming the go-to choice for next-generation protective upgrades.
High strength silicone rubber is the material’s core competitive edge. Once cured, the protective layer reaches a tensile strength of 5.5 MPa—equivalent to withstanding 55 kg of pulling force per square centimeter—so it will not rupture under elevated temperatures or external loads. With 250 % elongation, the silicone stretches along with the fabric, eliminating cracking caused by excessive rigidity. A tear strength of 16 kN/m ensures the fabric remains intact in emergencies, providing solid protection when it matters most.
Ease of application delivers immediate benefits to manufacturers. Thanks to excellent thixotropy, the silicone flows effortlessly onto fiberglass, fully penetrating the fiber gaps to form a uniform, gap-free barrier. When work stops, it sets rapidly, eliminating drips and sagging. This slashes post-application touch-ups and boosts production efficiency by more than 30 %.
Outstanding adhesion is another hallmark. After coating, the silicone bonds inseparably to the fiberglass, becoming a single, integrated layer. Even after repeated folding, abrasion, or flexing, there is no peeling or flaking. This stable adhesion keeps the fireproof fabric’s protective performance from degrading over time and extends service life.
Simplicity in use and storage further enhances practicality. The A and B components are mixed 1 : 1 by weight—no specialized technicians required. Store unopened containers below 23 °C for up to 12 months. After the shelf life, the material can still be used if it passes a simple performance check, giving companies flexible inventory control.
Whether for core fireproof-fabric production or the coating of other protective articles, this silicone delivers consistent, dependable performance that elevates product quality across the board.
