Silane compounds are used as adhesion promoters; Silicone fluids are used as damping fluids and lubricants in aerospace equipment; Silicone resins are employed as high-temperature adhesives and sealants in aerospace manufacturing; Silicone-based thermal insulation materials are used to protect aircraft and spacecraft from extreme temperatures during reentry or atmospheric reentry.
Functions of Silanes and Silicones for Aerospace
Silanes are used as surface treatments to improve adhesion and protect against corrosion in aerospace components. They enhance the bonding strength of adhesives and coatings, ensuring structural integrity and longevity. Silicones find application in aerospace for their resistance to extreme temperatures, low outgassing properties, and flexibility, making them ideal for gaskets, seals, and lubricants in engines, airframes, and electronic systems. Together, Silanes and Silicones contribute to the safety, performance, and reliability of aerospace equipment and structures.
