Features Of Dow DOWSIL FS Antifoam 544 Silicone Rubber

  1. Highly effective silicone-based antifoam specifically formulated for silicone rubber compounding processes.

  2. Excellent compatibility with high-temperature vulcanization (HTV) and liquid silicone rubber (LSR) systems.

  3. Low addition levels required—typically 0.1–0.5 wt%—minimizing impact on final cure kinetics and physical properties.

  4. Provides stable, long-lasting foam suppression without causing surface defects or blooming.

  5. Non-reactive formulation ensures consistent performance across diverse filler and catalyst systems.

Typical Applications Of Dow DOWSIL FS Antifoam 544 Silicone Rubber

  1. Antifoaming agent in high-consistency silicone rubber (HCR) for automotive seals and gaskets.

  2. Foam control additive in liquid silicone rubber (LSR) used for medical device molding.

  3. Processing aid in silicone rubber compounds for consumer electronics encapsulation.

  4. Defoamer in flame-retardant silicone rubber formulations for construction and electrical insulation.

  5. Performance enhancer in colored or pigmented silicone rubber to prevent air entrapment during mixing and extrusion.
