ELASTOSIL® E43 – when standard solutions stop working
Not every silicone is the same. In demanding industrial and electronic applications, the differences between materials become apparent very quickly — especially where durability, adhesion, and resistance to operating conditions matter most.
In this article, we take a closer look at ELASTOSIL® E43 — a specialized RTV-1 silicone adhesive that, thanks to its fluid consistency and exceptional adhesive properties, is often chosen where other solutions fall short. In practice, it is a material capable of taking on the role of several different products, simplifying processes and increasing the reliability of bonded joints.
If you want to learn why E43 is regarded as one of the strongest solutions in its class, where it performs best, and what sets it apart from standard silicones — we invite you to read the full article.

ELASTOSIL® E41 or E43? Seemingly similar — in practice completely different. Which one should you choose?
Although ELASTOSIL® E41 and E43 belong to the same RTV-1 silicone family, their applications differ far more than it might appear at first glance. One creates perfectly smooth, crystal-clear coatings — the other forms strong, structural bonds that underpin the long-term durability of devices.
If you want to understand why choosing the right silicone is critical to the reliability of electronics, lighting systems, and technical equipment, be sure to read the full article.

Silicones for Mold Making — How They Transformed Prototyping, Crafts, and Small-Batch Production
Silicones for mold making have revolutionized the world of prototyping, design, and small-batch production. They allow even the finest details to be reproduced with high fidelity, while remaining flexible, durable, and dimensionally stable. At the same time, they perform exceptionally well when working with resins, plaster, wax, or artistic concrete. In this article, we explain why systems such as ELASTOSIL® M and RTV-2 have become the standard in design studios, the creative industries, and technical applications — and how silicone has transformed the way we think about molding and creating replicas.
