Product detail:

 Description of Two component silicone         
 

 

MC Liquid Silicone for Moldmaking is a two-component material, and the RTV-2 silicone rubber includes Part A base silicone and Part B CA30 curing agent. The Part A base silicone and Part B curing agent can cure at room temperature by a condensation reaction. These materials can be cast into the cured silicone mold: plaster, polyurethane, PU, GRC, cement, resin, polyester, wax etc...

 

Features of Two component silicone         

 

1. Good flow ability and long working time

2. Medium hardness

3. High tear and tensile strength

4. Easy de-mould from complex replica parts

5. Acid and alkali-resistance

6. Low linear shrinkage

 

Applications of Two component silicone       

    

MC Liquid Silicone for Moldmaking is suited for reproduction of cement molding, concrete stones, artificial stones, plaster molding, figures, art objects, decoration molding, GRC products, gypsum products, resin products, PU molds. Etc.

 

 

Frequently asked questions of Silicon Rubber 

 

Why does the silicon mould appear to be dry outside but wet inside?

 

 

Because molding silicon rubber is a kind of condensation silicon rubber, which get solidified after absorbing moisture from the air. In order to provide a significant shelf-life for the silicon rubber, we will dry out the water in the silicon rubber.

 

 

Solution: Add 0.05% water into the silicon rubber and Stir over a low speed briefly when you use

 

  

Instructions for Two component silicone       

 

1. Preparing

 

The surface of the original objects should be clean and free of loose material. If your products have thin flower patterns, and especially have porous substrates, please use a suitable mold release agent such as soap water, detergent, Vaseline or petroleum jelly.

  

2. Mixing

 

Please weigh Part A silicone base and part B CA30 Curing Agent with ratio of 100:2 into a clean container. Stir Part A base silicone thoroughly before use, then Mix Part A and Part B evenly until the curing agent completely dispersed in the silicone base. Manual or mechanical mixture can be used, but do not last much time or allow the temperature to exceed 35°C (95°F).it’s suitable to mix small quantities to ensure thorough mixture of silicone base and curing agent.

 

Note: It is strongly recommended that entrapped air be removed in a vacuum chamber, allowing the mixture to completely expand and then collapse. After a further 1 to 2 minutes under vacuum, the mixture should be inspected and can be used if free of air bubbles. A volume increase of 3-5 times will occur on vacuum de-airing the mixture. So a suitably large container should be chosen.

 

3. Pouring and curing

 

Pour the mixed Part A base silicone and CA-30 curing agent as soon as possible onto the original object, avoiding air entrapment. The catalyzed material will cure to a flexible rubber within 6 hours (or faster by different mixing ratio or room temperature), we advice you de-mold after 24 hours, it is will improve the replicate times of silicone mold.

 

 

Storage of Two component silicone 

 

When the Liquid Silicone for Moldmaking is stored at or below 30 °C(85 °F) in the original unopened containers, RTV2 Silicone Base and CA30 Curing agent have a usable life of 10 months from the date of production. After 10 months,please  use a stockpiles to stir  the Part A silicone for some minutes, then the silicone rubber can be use again, no influence for other performance.
