Silicones For Use In Transportation
Transportation touches on all our lives, when we get into our cars, catch a bus or train, even fly across to the other side of the world, we have come to expect the same level of safety, reliability and comfort. Silicones play an important role in helping manufacturers live up to our expectations. CHT have a long history of supplying silicones into this industry and continue to work with design engineers to developed novel silicone elastomers for future technologies.
Sustainable methods of transportation are a key design requirement and the CHT Group is committed to promoting sustainable materials throughout the supply chain.
Finding the right silicone for your application is not limited to CHT’s product portfolio. Our technical team will partner with you to either modify specifications in a current product or custom formulate a new one to meet your exact requirements. Download our Customized Silicone Technology eBook.

Silicones for Electric & Hybrid Vehicles
Advances in Electric & Hybrid Vehicle design continue to reduce component size and increase power output, resulting in an ever-increasing demand for greater protection and better heat dissipation to maintain performance and life span. New filler technologies combined with formulating techniques enable CHT to increase thermal conductivity across a range of silicone materials including, adhesives, gap fillers, encapsulants, greases and gels.

Silicones for Automotive
As automotive electronic applications continue to grow in number and complexity the demands made upon them for increased performance and reliability present many design challenges. Silicone elastomers provide protection for these electronics and enhance performance.
Aftermarket car care is another key application area for the use of silicones as a raw material in the production of car cleaning materials. They provide high gloss, long lasting finishes and water repellence in polishes and dressings and shampoos and are used as additives to many types of cleaners and fabric treatments.
