Shin-Etsu KE-3497 Overview
Shin-Etsu KE 3497 RTV silicone is a high-strength silicone developed for coating/sealant applications in the aerospace and electronics industries. Utilizing a patented crosslinking system, KE 3497 offers a fast-curing alternative to other electronic-grade silicone coatings. In addition, rigorous processing of the base polymer for KE 3497 ensures minimal volatilization of low molecular weight silicone constituents after cure and subsequent exposure to high temperatures.
It is low viscosity makes KE 3497 an ideal conformal coating where flow coating is the preferred application method.KE 3497 coating is available either translucent or white and will cure a tough, flexible silicone elastomer upon exposure to atmospheric moisture at room temperature. KE 3497 should exhibit excellent adhesion to many substrates, including glass, wood, ceramics, clean metals, other silicone elastomers, and plastics like ABS and PVC
