SilGrip™ PSA518 is a silicone pressure sensitive adhesive that is used to manufacture industrial tapes with excellent thermal resistance.
SilGrip™ PSA518 is a solution grade silicone pressure sensitive adhesive composed of polysiloxane gum and resin in xylene. SilGrip™ PSA518 exhibits adhesion to a wide variety of substrates and maintains good shear and tack properties at temperatures up to 550°C. In addition, SilGrip™ PSA518 has excellent resistance to moisture, weathering, chemical, and biological attack.
Silicone solids: 56%
Specific gravity @ 25°C: 0.99
Viscosity @ 25°C: 65,000 cps
Color: light straw
Flash point (ASTM D93): 12°C
Solvent: Xylene
Primary Chemistry: Silicone
High temp resistance - good to 500°F
Own backing and excellent adhesion to substrate
Residue free
Silicone coated glass cloth
Excellent balance of tack, peel adhesion, lap shear, creep resistance and electrical properties
Adhesion failure of pressure sensitive adhesives caused by extreme changes in temperature.
SilGrip™ PSA518 can be easily diluted to a workable viscosity with aromatic, aliphatic, or chlorinated solvents and applied to films and fabrics using traditional coating methods to manufacture industrial tapes. SilGrip™ PSA518 is often used for electrical insulation and masking tapes for plasma/flame spray application due to its outstanding thermal stability. Tapes manufactured with SilGrip™ PSA518 exhibit excellent adhesion to low energy surfaces and remarkable high temperature shear resistance.
