Silicone elastomers

NuSil’s portfolio of HCRs gives medical device manufacturers a silicone rubber material designed for a broad range of fabrication processes. Whether you are extruding tubing, compression or transfer molding parts or calendering sheets for die cutting, our HCRs offer high mechanical properties and low modulus compared to other elastomer systems.

Liquid silicone rubbers (LSRs) are designed for use in high-volume precision manufacturing processes such as liquid injection molding and over-molding. They can be used to produce molded parts that feature complex geometries in a matter of seconds, especially very small to medium-sized parts, like gaskets and valves used in medical devices.

NuSil low viscosity elastomers from Avantor are flowable silicones that are ideal for low-pressure molding processes, as well as providing an effective material for encapsulating devices such as electronics.
