Description

SILTEM™ STM1600 resin is a flexible polyetherimide(PEI)-siloxane copolymer designed for wire and cable applications. It offers a halogen free (according VDE 0472) flame retardant solution that also offers low smoke emission and toxicity. It is an amber colored transparent material that can be selfcolored and easily processed on conventional equipment. The material may also have a fit in flexible profiles or injection molded parts.

This material data has been provided by Sabic.

"Typical" values were obtained via a literature search. "Predicted" values were imputed via artificial intelligence technology. While we have placed significant efforts in ensuring data accuracy, "typical" and "predicted" data should be considered indicative and verified by appropriate material testing. Please do contact us if additional information on the the predicted data method is required.
All metrics apply to room temperature unless otherwise stated. SI units used unless otherwise stated.
Equivalent standards are similar to one or more standards provided by the supplier. Some equivalent standards may be stricter whereas others may be outside the bounds of the original standard.
