Product Overview
HONG YE SILICONE’s Liquid Foamed Silicone (Foaming Silicone Rubber, Silicone Foam ) is an ultra-lightweight low-density core product, specially developed for lightweight equipment, aerospace and weight-sensitive environments. As a 2-component addition curing silicone, it is formed by chemical foaming of flowable Part A and Part B, formulated with lightweight foaming agents and density modifiers, featuring ultra-low density, light weight, fine uniform closed-cell structure, good elasticity and density stability. It has a density of ≤0.3 g/cm³, significantly lighter than standard silicone foam, no weight increase, effectively reducing product overall weight, solving the problem of traditional foaming materials’ high density in weight-sensitive scenarios. Compatible with most of our precision and aerospace products, it is ideal for lightweight components, ultra-light buffers and weight-sensitive scenarios.
