Silicone rubber is a reliable solution (as opposed to rubber and thermoplastic elastomers) for migration or interaction problems between the main active ingredients. Its chemical stability prevents it from affecting any substrate it is in contact with (skin, water, blood, active ingredients, etc.).
Silicone caulk can be used as a basic sealant against water and air penetration. In organosilicon and polymer chemistry, a silicone or polysiloxane is a polymer composed of repeating units of siloxane (−O−R 2 Si−O−SiR 2 −, where R = organic group). They are typically colorless oils or rubber-like substances. Silicones are used in ...
A spatula is a broad, flat, flexible blade used to mix, spread and lift material [1] including foods, drugs, plaster and paints. In medical applications, "spatula" may also be used synonymously with tongue depressor .
The silicone toy Silly Putty behaves quite differently depending on the time rate of applying a force: pull slowly and it flows, acting as a heavily viscous liquid; hit it with a hammer and it shatters, acting as a glass. On cooling, rubber undergoes a liquid-glass transition, which has also been called a rubber-glass transition.
Kitchen scrapers. A kitchen scraper is a kitchen implement made of metal, plastics (such as polyethylene, nylon, or polypropylene), wood, rubber or silicone rubber.In practice, one type of scraper is often interchanged with another or with a spatula (thus scrapers are often called spatulas) for some of the various uses.

RTV silicone rubber can be used to cast materials including wax, gypsum, low-melt alloys/metals, and urethane, epoxy, or polyester resins (without using a release agent). A more recent innovation is the ability to 3D print RTV silicones.
Silicone resin with R = CH 3, H or OH. Silicone resins are a type of silicone material which is formed by branched, cage-like oligosiloxanes with the general formula of R n SiX m O y, where R is a non-reactive substituent, usually methyl (Me = −CH 3) or phenyl (Ph = −C 6 H 5), and X is a functional group: hydrogen (−H), hydroxyl (−OH), chlorine (−Cl) or alkoxy (−O −).
