Custom Formulations and Product Analysis

custom formulations

Specialty Silicone Products (SSP) invites you to watch our Custom Formulations and Product Analysis video and see how we can help you turn your ideas for new materials into reality. At SSP, we have a dedicated R&D and Technology team that does the type of custom formulation and custom development work you’ll typically find only at larger companies. Yet we’re small enough to move quickly.

Custom Formulations

SSP can provide you with custom silicones in the shapes, sizes, thicknesses, pigments, and performance characteristics that you need. Whether you need a silicone with a certain set of properties or in a specific color, we can translate your application requirements into a new material you won’t find anywhere else. Plus, we’re willing to mix quantities that are too small for larger compounders to formulate.

Product Analysis

The custom sheets, rolls, and ready-to-mold compounds that SSP offers are available with a full certificate of analysis (COA) for each batch. At our in-house laboratory, we perform tests not only for material properties such as durometer, but also for flexural strength. Our flex tester isn’t the type of equipment you’ll find just anywhere but it lets us cycle materials to determine how long it will take before they crack.   

New Materials and Silicone Customization

SSP’s custom formulation capabilities aren’t limited to brand new materials either. Our R&D and Technology Team can also determine how to produce custom sheets from existing materials in specialized shapes and thicknesses. SSP is your source for bespoke materials you won’t find anywhere else, and we also offer custom molded products such as EMI gaskets and EMI O-rings.
