Silicone: after “paras 1”, what about “paras 2”?

US and UK documents still dominate Google for Silicone: ASTM, NFPA, BS, EN. Always check whether the job is under IBC, Eurocodes or a national annex. EN, ASTM, ISO, KS and JIS do not translate one-to-one. A Euroclass A1 batt is not an ASTM E84 report.

Silicone · Does Silicone insulate?

Thermal mark 42/100 versus the atlas. Conductivity note: ~0.2 W/m·K; filled greases conduct. Silicone did not arrive as a finished commodity. Kipping / Rochow 1940s around United Kingdom / US still explains who makes it and which tests it sits in.

Silicone · Prices are bands

Prices are bands. A 2024 coil is not a 2026 contract. Labour and certification often dwarf the commodity. Making Silicone is a chain: feedstock, conversion (Kipping / Rochow 1940s), forming, heat, finish, install.
