The present invention relates to a crosslinkable silicone elastomer composition and a method using the composition according to the invention to form seals and assembly components of a powertrain. The silicone elastomers prepared from the composition according to the invention have: good properties of mechanical strength such as shore hardness, tensile strength, modulus at 100% elongation and good resistance to aging in chemically aggressive fluids such as those used for example in a powertrain, namely engine oils, gearbox and deck lubricants, oil / gasoline mixtures, coolants, fuels or antifreeze fluids, and - good adhesion properties even on surfaces polluted by oils used in a powertrain. |
