Elastomeric Material Solutions

The future of transportation is taking shape with electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. These innovative vehicles bring new challenges in performance, safety, and material reliability. At Rogers Corporation, we play a key role in supporting the development of advanced air mobility systems by partnering with trusted converters like Stockwell Elastomerics.

Our Preferred Converter, Stockwell Elastomerics, recently shared an excellent overview of how Rogers materials support AAM innovation. The article highlights material solutions for key systems throughout eVTOL platforms, including interiors, exteriors, and lithium-ion battery packs.

You’ll find examples such as:

• Interior components that rely on BISCO® silicones for vibration isolation, sealing, and comfort
• Exterior surfaces that require flame resistance, EMI shielding, and vibration damping using BISCO, ARLON®, and PORON® materials
• Battery protection systems where our materials provide thermal insulation, cushioning, and pressure management

The blog also highlights how Stockwell converts Rogers materials into engineered components. Their capabilities include custom cutting, adhesive application, and rapid prototyping to help engineers move from concept to production with confidence.
