Top Categories

Five core material categories spanning Dow's electronics protection and thermal management portfolio.

Adhesives & Sealants
DOWSIL™ Bonding & Sealing Materials

Adhesives & Sealants

Dow's adhesive and sealant range, predominantly under the DOWSIL brand, spans one-part RTV systems, two-part fast-cure formulations, and high-performance structural grades. These silicone chemistries provide durable, flexible bonds that tolerate thermal cycling, vibration, and chemical exposure - making them suitable for both general electronics assembly and demanding military and industrial specifications.

Dow 3145 RTV Mil-A-46146 Adhesive/Sealant, Clear, 90ml [3 Oz]​ Tube  Silicone by Laoneer: Amazon.com: Industrial & Scientific

RTV / One-Part

Room-temperature-vulcanizing silicones that cure on exposure to atmospheric moisture, ideal for general bonding, sealing, and gasketing where a simple one-step cure process is preferred, including MIL-spec qualified formulations.

Dow DOWSIL™ 3-6265 HP - 20kg – Order now from Ellsworth Adhesives Europe

High-Performance / Structural

Higher-strength silicone adhesive systems formulated for demanding structural bonding applications where enhanced adhesion, mechanical performance, or fast handling strength is required.

Additional adhesives and sealants: DOWSIL™ 844 RTV Adhesive Sealant, DOWSIL™ EA-3838 Fast Adhesive (Base & Catalyst), DOWSIL™ EA-4700 CV Adhesive, DOWSIL™ EA-7300 Adhesive.

 
Conformal Coatings
DOWSIL™ Protective Materials

Conformal Coatings

DOWSIL conformal coatings protect PCB assemblies against moisture, chemical contamination, and corrosion, with silicone chemistry offering a far wider operating temperature range than acrylic or urethane alternatives. The range includes solvent-borne, solventless, low-VOC, and UV dual-cure systems, giving process engineers flexibility across dip, spray, and inline automated coating lines while maintaining MIL and IPC qualification.

Chemistry

Silicone

Silicone conformal coatings deliver stable performance across extreme temperature swings and outdoor exposure, making them well suited to automotive electronics, power modules, and outdoor telecom assemblies where thermal cycling and humidity resistance are critical.

Additional conformal coatings: DOWSIL™ 3-1953, DOWSIL™ 3-1965, DOWSIL™ CC-8030 / CC-8033 / CC-8036 UV and Dual Moisture Cure Conformal Coatings.

 
Encapsulants & Gels
DOWSIL™ & SYLGARD™ Potting Materials

Encapsulants & Gels

This category spans both the DOWSIL and SYLGARD brands, covering dielectric gels and two-part silicone elastomer kits used to fully or partially pot sensitive electronics. Their low modulus and low cure stress protect fine-pitch components, bond wires, and sensors from thermal cycling and vibration without the rigidity and shrinkage risks associated with epoxy potting compounds.

SYLGARD™ 527 A&B | Silicone Dielectric Gel for Delicate Components | DS-527

Dielectric Gels

Ultra-soft, low-stress silicone gels that cushion bond wires and fine-pitch components while providing dielectric protection against moisture and contamination, without the rigidity of a fully cured elastomer.

Dow SYLGARD™ 160 Silicone Encapsulant Gray 210 mL Kit

Elastomer Kits

Two-part SYLGARD silicone elastomer kits cure to a flexible, fully encapsulating solid, offering a range of cure speeds and durometers for potting, casting, and general component protection.

Additional encapsulants and gels: DOWSIL™ 3-4207 Dielectric Tough Gel Kit, DOWSIL™ EE-3200 Low Stress Silicone Encapsulant, DOWSIL™ EI-2888 Primerless Silicone Encapsulant Kit.

 
Thermal Interface Materials
DOWSIL™ Thermal Management Materials

Thermal Interface Materials

Dow's thermally conductive compounds and greases manage heat dissipation in power semiconductors, IGBTs, EV battery and inverter systems, and high-density computing hardware. Silicone-based thermal materials combine high thermal conductivity with electrical insulation and broad temperature stability, supporting both non-curing greases for reworkable assemblies and curable encapsulant systems for permanent installations.

Dowsil Tc-5026 Thermally Conductive Compound 1 Kg Can - Krayden Corporate

Compounds & Greases

Non-curing thermal greases and compounds that stay reworkable while providing efficient heat transfer between components and heat sinks, ideal for serviceable assemblies.

Thermally Conductive Encapsulants

Curable Encapsulants

Thermally conductive silicone encapsulants that cure to a permanent, electrically insulating solid, combining structural support with heat dissipation for power modules and battery systems.

 
Heat Transfer Fluid
DOWFROST™ Liquid Cooling Fluids

Heat Transfer Fluid

DOWFROST™ heat transfer fluids serve liquid cooling loops in data centers, high-performance computing, and EV battery systems. As processor power density continues to climb, direct-to-chip liquid cooling has become a primary thermal management strategy for next-generation data center infrastructure - and DOWFROST LC-25 is formulated specifically to support these systems with corrosion-inhibited, high-performance cooling fluid.
