Silicones – A World of Unlimited Potential

Silicones – A World of Unlimited Potential

We encounter them every day – in smartphones, cars, textiles, paints and coatings, but also in lipsticks, detergents and medical applications. They are the 3,000 different silicone products that WACKER manufactures.

They have unique properties unsurpassed in their diversity by any other polymer. They are resistant not only to heat, but also to low temperatures. They are sealants and insulating materials, but also lubricants and release agents. They are water-repellent, elastic, UV-resistant and extremely durable. And they provide glossy surfaces while making textiles soft and supple.
