Silicone and the Science of Scar Management

For decades, silicone-based materials have been used as a non-invasive approach in the management of hypertrophic and keloid scars.

Clinical literature and international scar-management recommendations have supported the use of silicone gel and silicone gel sheeting in scar care. Research has evaluated outcomes including scar thickness, color, appearance and patient symptoms, although systematic reviews also note variability in study quality and certainty of the available evidence.

For medical-device designers, effective scar-care products require more than the silicone itself. Skin contact, conformability, adhesion, wear performance, repositionability and atraumatic removal all influence the design of a product intended for repeated or extended contact with the skin.
Polymer Science’s P-DERM® silicone gel adhesive platforms provide material options for manufacturers developing skin-contact and scar-management applications:

P-DERM® PS-1267 — a high-adhesion silicone gel skin-contact adhesive on a polyurethane carrier, offering instantaneous tack, repositionability and atraumatic removal from skin.

P-DERM® PS-3014 — our newer, lower-coat-weight silicone gel adhesive construction designed where consistent adhesion and repositionability are required. Its polyurethane carrier and silicone adhesive construction provide another option for engineers balancing secure skin contact with gentle removal.
Both materials have passed the cytotoxicity, primary dermal irritation and Buehler sensitization testing reported on their technical data sheets under ISO 10993.

Developing the next generation of scar-care or long-wear skin-contact products? Talk with Polymer Science about selecting a P-DERM® silicone adhesive construction for your application.

EV battery performance depends on effective thermal management.

As battery architectures evolve toward higher energy density and more demanding operating conditions, engineers must manage heat transfer while accounting for compression, dimensional tolerances, electrical isolation, outgassing and manufacturability.

At The Battery Show 2026, visit Polymer Science at Booth 1016 to explore our P-THERM® 5 W/m·K thermal management materials, including:

PS-2505 | PS-2855 | PS-2885

These materials provide engineers with multiple options for addressing thermal interface requirements within EV battery assemblies.

Talk directly with our experienced sales engineers about your application, material selection and the thermal-management challenges affecting your next battery design.

Visit us at Booth 1016 at The Battery Show in Detroit.

Polymer Science offers a versatile series of silicone elastomer materials designed to support these demanding applications.

Available in a range of constructions, thicknesses and hardnesses, these materials provide engineers with options for applications requiring:
• Electrical and dielectric protection
• Gasketing and cushioning
• Dimensional stability
• Thin, converter-friendly constructions
• Flexible material selection across a range of hardnesses and thicknesses

The portfolio includes silicone elastomers supported by polyester films as well as multilaminate constructions designed for converting into application-specific shapes and components.

Whether the design challenge involves protecting sensitive electronics, managing mechanical interfaces or providing electrical isolation, Polymer Science can help identify a material construction suited to the application.

Thermal management in battery and EV systems is about more than thermal conductivity.

Large interface gaps, electrical isolation requirements, assembly tolerances and complex component geometries can all influence the performance of a thermal solution.
At The Battery Show North America 2026, Polymer Science will be highlighting P-THERM® thermal management solutions for battery systems, inverters, power converters and other demanding power-electronics applications.

Over the coming weeks, we’ll take a closer look at technologies designed to address these challenges, including:
• Thick, conformable thermal interface materials for larger gaps
• Electrically isolating and high dielectric-strength constructions
• Dispensable thermal solutions for complex geometries
• Non-conductive foam technologies
• Thermal solutions for inverters and power electronics

See these technologies firsthand at The Battery Show North America, October 12–15 in Detroit. Visit Polymer Science at Booth 1016.

Solid or dispensable gap filler—which is the better choice for your application?
The answer depends on your design—not just the thermal conductivity specification.
As power density increases, thermal management becomes one of the most critical design challenges in modern power inverters. EVs, industrial motor drives, renewable energy systems, and energy storage applications demand more power from increasingly compact electronics. Higher switching frequencies, SiC and IGBT devices, and tighter packaging create localized hot spots that can affect efficiency, reliability, and service life.
Power modules are only part of the thermal challenge. DC-link capacitors, magnetics, inductors, gate-driver electronics, and control circuitry may also require a reliable thermal path to the enclosure, cold plate, or other heat-spreading structure.
P-THERM® solid gap fillers can help by:
- Bridging air gaps caused by tolerances and uneven surfaces
- Providing a consistent, preformed interface
- Supporting low-compression-force assembly requirements
- Maintaining performance through thermal cycling and vibration
P-THERM® dispensable gap fillers can help by:
- Conforming to complex component geometries
- Accommodating variable bond-line thicknesses
- Supporting automated dispensing and high-volume manufacturing
- Improving contact across irregular surfaces while reducing interfacial resistance
The right choice depends on more than thermal conductivity. Mechanical compliance, dielectric requirements, gap variation, assembly method, reworkability, and long-term reliability all influence the final material selection.
