DOWSIL 3165 RTV/Dow Corning 3165 RTVProduct Features
DOWSIL 3165 Fast Skin-Forming RTV Bonding Sealant: Gray;
Non-slumping after application; UL-94V-0 flame retardancy rating.
Short skin-forming time improves online processing speed;
Density at 25°C = 1.28
Curing can be accelerated by heating;
Room temperature moisture cure, no oven required;
Solvent-free, no ventilation needed;
Single-component, no mixing required;

Application Method Pretreatment: Substrate surfaces must be degreased, cleaned, and dried. Corona treatment can enhance bonding effectiveness.

Application: Manual or pneumatic dispensing guns can be used.

Maximum air pressure should not exceed 45 psig. Curing: This product cures with moisture at room temperature.

Curing accelerates when relative humidity is above 30%. Typical Properties: Water-resistant dissipation factor (100Hz) = 0.003 Dissipation factor (100kHz) = 0.001 Skin-forming time - 50% relative humidity = 4 minutes Color Gray Non-slumping Volume resistivity = 2.4e+015 ohm-centimeters Shelf life = 360 days Shear = 200 psi Room temperature cure - hours = 24 hours Elongation = 180 % Temperature range -45°C to 200°C Hydrophobic Linear = 250 μm/m/°C Dielectric strength = 500 V/mil Dielectric constant (100Hz) = 2.22 Dielectric constant (100kHz) = 2.38
