Evaluating a switch of polysilazane supply? This guide maps Silfluo grades to the industry benchmark products most often named in specifications — so your evaluation starts from the right candidate instead of a catalog search.
How to use this table — and its limits
Each row pairs a Silfluo grade with the benchmark product it is most commonly evaluated against. The pairing means "start your comparison here": it does not imply identical composition, equivalent performance, or drop-in replacement. Polysilazane behavior depends on substrate, film build, curing schedule and service conditions — suitability must be confirmed by your own application testing, which we support with samples, TDS data and starting parameters.
| Silfluo Grade | Product Type | Commonly Evaluated Against* |
|---|---|---|
| SILZ-150 | Room-Temperature Curing Polysilazane Resin (Slow Cure) | Durazane® 1500 Slow Cure |
| SILZ-150K | Rapid-Cure Room-Temperature Polysilazane Resin | Durazane® 1500 Rapid Cure |
| SILZ-150U | High-Hardness Polysilazane Resin (Formulation Grade) | Durazane® 1033 |
| SILZ-350 | Methylhydro-/Methylvinylsilazane (Heat-Curable Ceramic Precursor) | Durazane® 1800 |
