DOWSIL™
DOWSIL™ has acquired expertise in silicone research that has made it a leading pioneer in the field of silicones worldwide.
DOWSIL™ adhesives and sealants (formerly Dow Corning) play a key role in helping industries meet the demands of the future.
DOWSIL™ Industrial Adhesives and Sealants:
– Elastomeric adhesive
Many components in the automotive, electronics, electrical and engineering industries require seals or gaskets to protect against dust and moisture or to prevent leakage of gases and liquids.
Typical features of DOWSIL™ sealants include:
- Excellent resistance to long-term compression, even at extreme temperatures
- Good adhesion to all substrates
- Long-term stability over a wide temperature range (from -60°C to > 200°C) >
- Resistance to oil, water, coolants, detergents and many other chemicals
- Resistance to various climatic factors (UV, ozone, oxidation)
- Excellent electrical properties
- Low flammability and toxicity near heat sources
- They do not require solvents during the process

DOWSIL™ Electronic Protection Products
it is primarily:
- Electronics adhesives
- Resins and sealants
- Dielectric gels
- Conformal coatings
- Thermally conductive pastes
- Thermally conductive adhesives
- Gap fillers
DOWSIL™ electronics adhesives have always been recognized as a global leader in silicones. The Electronics Division is entirely dedicated to the development of products and technologies for the electronics world, from semiconductor production to assembly.
In electronics, silicones are preferred due to the following characteristics:
- excellent dielectric properties
- excellent resistance to weather conditions
- stability over a wide temperature range
- good adhesion to a wide range of substrates
- less emphasis on components
- resistance to ultraviolet radiation and chemicals.
Products can be used in modules, connectors, sensors, PCBs, and much more. The DOWSIL™ product range includes:
- Electronics adhesives designed to attach components, seal connections, and protect delicate components.
- Silicone conformal coatings (protective coatings and sealants) protect printed circuit boards from moisture, contamination, and mechanical abrasion, thereby preventing short circuits and increasing board life. These products conform to the circuit board, providing long-term protection.
- Silicone-based encapsulants and gels designed for electrical insulation and protection of electronic components against aggressive chemicals, mechanical stress and external interference
- Gels are especially suitable for sensitive components
- Thermally conductive materials designed to meet the ever-increasing demands of heat dissipation in components that are becoming increasingly smaller, more efficient, and faster. DOWSIL™ Thermally Conductive Gels are available in both wet-cure and film or mat forms.

Other DOWSIL™ Applications
DOWSIL™ silicone fluids are useful at high temperatures, for example, as bases for special greases or diathermic oils. Silicone compounds act as release and protective agents, used for electrical connections, O-rings, and more. Benefits include longer service life, lower costs, increased productivity, and reliability in harsh environments.
In the solar panel and photovoltaic industry, DOWSIL™ silicone products improve performance and durability. They are used as protective coatings, adhesives, and sealants during assembly. These silicones are ideal for solar panel and photovoltaic applications, withstanding the sun's unforgiving rays year after year.
