The thermal stability of silicone rubber is probably its most important asset. Components made from these rubbers are affected only to a small extent by extremes of temperature. An operating temperature range of -90°C to +250°C (depending on grade)is acceptableintermittentlyand for continuous use it will stand temperatures of -60°C to +200°C.Silicone rubber is an excellent electrical insulating material. Resistance to arcing corona, ultra-violet light and ozone is good. It decomposes at 400-500°C leaving an inert, non-flammable and electrically non-conductive residue.
