ADVANCED SILICONES
FROM LAUNCH TO LANDING
For more than 60 years Momentive has been part of the journey into space—providing the silicone in the
boots of the first astronaut to walk on the moon, in the rockets that propelled those pioneers into orbit
and on every US manned space flight since. Momentive’s innovative silicones help today's aerospace
pioneers reach ever greater heights. From launch to landing, Momentive's advanced silicone products
enable the next generation of space exploration.
