BGK Endless woven bands on a silicone basis
Endless woven conveyor belts for high-precision applications, coated with Silicone (BGK S-Series)
Properties Silicone:
Silicone is a synthetic polymer. The molecular structure is characteristic. The molecules consist of silicone atoms that are connected to each other via oxygen atoms. This combination of a typically inorganic structure and organic components makes silicone a unique type of material whose special properties cannot be achieved by any other plastic.
Silicones can be divided into different groups. For example, while silicone oils and resins are used to produce paint, silicone rubbers are used for endless belts. They are used in both wet and dry areas and - in combination with the right carcass - can be used in extreme cold, up to -50°C, and extreme heat, up to +300°C.
Silicones are very suitable for direct contact with food and for hygiene applications because they are recognized as physiologically safe. The latter is underlined by the increasing use of silicone in cookware. Another property that should be emphasized for the use of the material as a tire coating is its toughness which results in very good wear resistance and a high coefficient of friction. Silicone has good chemical stability, is UV resistant and does not become brittle.
