The high-temperature properties of silicone rubber are compared to those of six organic rubbers. New data on properties at temperature, as distinct from standard heat aging data, are presented to guide the designer and materials engineer. The properties of fluorosilicone rubber are also discussed. Current automotive applications of both silicone rubber and fluorosilicone rubber are described.
