What is SILASTIC™ SST-2650 Self-Sealing Silicone?
A unique solution at all stages from process, use and end of life while meeting OEM performance requirements. The 2-part ambient curing silicone elastomer is designed to form a self-sealing layer on the inner surface of a tire. It provides outstanding sealing performance following puncture allowing driving long distances without loss of tire pressure. This novel material can be applied in a fast mass-producible process and effectively separated from the tire at end of life enabling efficient recycling. Dow’s innovative SILASTIC™ Self Sealing Silicone is leading the industry’s transition to a more sustainable future.
Uses
- Self-sealing tire sealant
Benefits
- Removes the need for a spare tire reducing vehicle weight, improving range and fuel efficiency, whilst enabling more design freedom
- Tires using SiLASTIC™ Self Sealing Silicone can be easily and quickly manufactured with standard equipment at room temperature
- The surface of the tire does not need to be laser cleaned prior to coating application
- Only a thin layer of silicone sealant is needed to achieve puncture resistance, long-term stability and airtightness
- Can be separated from tires at the end of life, enabling efficient recycling of both tires and silicone in separate waste streams
