TEGOSIL® LVS 100 is a low viscous vinylterminated polydimethylsiloxane for the use as a base polymer in addition curing silicone formulations. In contrast to the standard grade TEGOSIL® VS 100 it is particularly suited to achieve highly flowable, self-levelling formulations with highest filler loads as e.g. 80-90 wt.-% alumina for thermal interface materials. In addition, TEGOSIL® stands for high-quality silicone solutions with low cyclic content, ensuring optimized performance and compliance with stringent industry standards (D4 < 250ppm, D5 < 1000ppm, D6 < 1000ppm).
Typical Applications
TEGOSIL® LVS 100 cures by a platinum-catalyzed addition reaction with silicone crosslinkers containing SiH groups. Due to the low content of volatile constituents and the crosslinking mechanism, the curing shrinkage remains low and no volatile or corrosive substances are formed while curing.
TEGOSIL LVS 100 can be used for a wide range of applications by selecting the suitable crosslinkers (TEGOSIL® CL 100 series, TEGOSIL® CL 200 series), catalysts (TEGOSIL® CAT 500 series), additives and fillers.
Fillers can be dispersed into TEGOSIL® LVS 100 by the commonly used equipment as e.g. planetary dissolvers. Mixing under vacuum is recommended to avoid inclusion of air bubbles. Temperature should be monitored during the mixing process to avoid overheating.
