Molded RTI made from silicone rubber compounds have a complex of unique properties, unlike RTI made from black (organic rubbers):
- Elasticity in the widest temperature range from -50°C to +300°C
- RTI from special brands of silicone rubbers are elastic at temperatures up to minus 70°C
- High weather resistance (20 years of conditional operation in UHL conditions)
- Resistance to weak acids and alkalis, ozone, solar radiation, alcohol solutions, water vapor, sea water, mineral oils and phenols
- Radiation resistance
- Resistance to transformer oils (RTI made of fluorosilicon)
