THIS PAPER DISCUSSES THE FACTORS RELATING TO GOOD SEALING PERFORMANCE OF SILICONE RTVS IN SEMI-RIGID AUTOMOTIVE POWERTRAIN JOINTS. SEVERAL TYPES OF SILICONE RTVS ARE EVALUATED FOR ADHESION TO VARIOUS SUBSTRATES AND RESISTANCE TO AUTOMOTIVE FLUIDS. LABORATORY TEST RESULTS FOR LAP SHEAR ADHESION TO ALUMINUM, STEEL, AND ELPO COAT AS WELL AS PHYSICAL PROPERTIES AFTER EXPOSURE TO MOTOR OIL, ATF, AND GEAR OILS ARE PRESENTED.
