Silicone Fluids - Performance Products
Product description
DOW Silicones (formerly Dow Corning) delivers a wide variety of silicone-based polymers for diverse solutions in electric, electronic and energy applications. DOWSIL™ and XIAMETER™ silicone fluids can be used to replace many of the VOC and hazardous air-polluting solvents used in electronics manufacturing. The fluids in our portfolio can be used for:
Stripping conformal coatings – Fluids are effective at removing many conformal coatings.
Coating dilution – Fluids are especially effective at diluting conformal coatings, for optimum spray viscosity.
Coating application – Offers a variety of solventless and low-VOC conformal coatings, many specially tailored to spray, dip, or brush application methods.
Board preparation – All Fluids can be used to preclean boards prior to coating.
Equipment clean-up – Fluids offer an environmentally acceptable way of cleaning mixing and dispensing equipment, including lines and heads.
