NuSil Technology is the cutting edge manufacturer of silicone products for the aircraft industry requiring precise, predictable materials. NuSils silicone materials deliver adhesives, potting compounds, encapsulants, and fast-curing silicones. ISO 9001 certified since 1994, and AS 9100 certified since 2008, NuSil operates state-of-the-art laboratories and processing facilities in North America and provides on-site, in-person application engineering support worldwide. Benefits of Silicone Materials for Aircraft The Aircraft Industry has used silicone adhesives and coatings for over five decades. Silicones ability to maintain its elasticity and low modulus over a broad temperature range provides excellent utility in extreme environments. Recent advances in material technology provide more opportunities for the Aircraft engineer in choosing the best material for an intended application. Examples of NuSils capabilities in custom silicones for Aircraft are demonstrated in the following sections. Fuel Resistance A standard requirement for the aircraft industry is to use materials that are fuel resistant. The breadth of material choices for these types of applications is attributable to advances in Fluorosilicone technology, which are based on trifluoropropyl methylpolysiloxane polymers. The trifluoropropyl group contributes a slight polarity to the polymer, resulting in swell resistance against hydrocarbons (i.e. gasoline, jet fuels, hydraulic fluids, etc.) While some Fluorosilicones contain 100% trifluoropropyl methylpolysiloxane repeating units, other systems contain a combination of the fluorosiloxane units and dimethyl units to form a co-polymer. Adjusting the amount of trifluoropropyl methyl siloxane units in the polymerization phase provides optimal performance in specific applications. Functional fillers can be added to Fluorosilicone materials and used as gap fillers, coatings, molded parts, repair butters, or for other applications and they can also be calendared into sheets or ribbons. Operating Temperature The operating temperature range of a silicone in any application is dependent on many variables, including but not limited to: temperature, time of exposure, type of atmosphere, exposure of the materials surface to the atmosphere, and mechanical stress. In addition, a materials physical properties will vary at both the high and low end of the operating temperature range. Silicone typically remains flexible at extremely low temperatures and has been known to perform at -140 C as well as resist breakdown at elevated temperatures up to 315 C. The user is responsible to verify performance of a material in a specific application. Static Dissipation and Electrically Conductive Silicones Progression in technology has greatly influenced the use of lightweight composite materials to replace aluminum aircrafts. Aluminum has long been used for the skin and frames of aircraft, acting as a Faraday cage by spreading electrical impact along the external skin, fuselage and wings. Faraday cages protect electronic equipment from light-ning strikes, electrostatic discharges, or radar signatures. The downside to using composite materials is their inability to deflect electric charge. Electrically conductive additives incorporated into NuSils silicones provide protection against static accumulation and discharge that can damage sensitive electronic components. The static is allowed to dissipate continuously rather than accumulate and discharge rapidly. The electrical conductivity is measured by volume resistivity (cm) and is used to gauge the shielding effectiveness of the material. Electrically conductive fillers are typically metal particles (<0.1 ohmcm) or carbon black (>1 ohmcm). It is important that an electrically conductive silicone maintain its shape and conductivity under stress (i.e. elongation or compression). This provides stress relief during thermal cycling between substrates with different Coefficient of Thermal Expansions (CTEs).
Ice-Phobic Coatings Ice build up is a serious problem and major economic impact in the aircraft industry. Silicone has the ability to remain elastic at low temperatures and resistant to breakdown at high temperatures, thus making it valuable in harsh environments. Compared to other Ice-Phobic coatings and materials known to have non-stick properties such as Teflon, select silicone coatings can significantly reduce ice adhesion when applied to aerodynamic surfaces. IcePhobic coatings are useful in many applications where surfaces and structures are exposed to icing conditions: Aerodynamic Surfaces Aircraft Wings and Control Surfaces, UAV Structures, Engine Cowlings, Wind Turbines Hydrodynamic Surfaces Marine Vessels (i.e. Naval Ships, Fishing, Cargo, Ice-breakers), Lock Walls Structures Above Ground Power Lines, Roof Tops, Observatories, Antennas In a recent study, the ice adhesion strengths of Ice-Phobic coatings were tested and compared using a method developed to measure the bond strength of ice to a substrate. The force required to break the ice from the substrate surface is measured as mean stress. In the graph below, NuSils Ice-Phobic coatings show very favorable performance against the industry standard - Teflon and bare aluminum.

NuSils ability to custom formulate has advanced efforts to develop alternate formulations to further accommodate Ice-Phobic applications. Currently, NuSil is evaluating new formulations that increase contact angle.
