Resists Heat, Weather and Chemicals
At 60% solids content, paint formulations incorporating TSR1452 silicone form a medium-hard film that helps provide excellent thermal resistance and good gloss and color retention. As a low molecular weight polymer, it is broadly compatible with a wide range of organics.
Consisting of 60% by weight methyl phenyl silicone in xylene, TSR1452 silicone is an excellent candidate as the sole vehicle for providing thermal resistance, or can be blended with organic vehicles to help boost heat resistance.
In mechanical film testing1, TSR1452 silicone film at30-40 µm thickness demonstrated hardness (Sward rocker test) of 55, Erichsen indication of 4 mm, good cross cut adhesion tests, and a bend test flexibility over a 3 mm diameter mandrel.
After exposure to 250 °C for 16 hours2, a black enamel formulation incorporating TSR1452 silicone exhibited excellent gloss and color retention compared to a select standard silicone resin.
