Product Details

Food Grade Platinum Liquid Silicone Rubber RTV2 For Candy/Chocolate/Cake Molds

Product description

MC Silicone MCPLA-L15 is a two-component elastomeric material consisting of Silicone Base, which when mixed with Curing Agent,cures to an elastic and resistant material at room temperature by an addition reaction. The curing can be heat accelerated. A range of materials can be cast into the cured silicone mold.

Good flowablility

High tear and tensile strenght

Flexible and dimensional stability

Easy to de-air

Long shelf life with low shrinkage

Applications

Molding applications requiring low shrinkage. Food grade molds for cake, chocolate, candy, fondant, and other resin crafts, plaster, cement art decorations, etc.

Processing and Instructions of Addition Cure Silicones

1. Mixing the two components

According the mixing ration 10:1 or 1:1 weighting A and B, the two components may be thoroughly mixed either by hand or using a low-speed electric to minimize the degassing of bubbles and to avoid any temperature increase. Note: It is also possible to use a special mixing and dispensing machine for the silicone components, further information is available upon request.

2. Moulding

The mixture should be degassed preferably at 30 to 50 mbar to eliminate any entrapped air. If a dispensing machine is used, the two components are degassed separately prior to mixing. The silicone mixture expands to 3-4 times of its initial volume and bubbles rise to the surface. The bubbles progressively disappear and the mixture returns to its initial volume after 5 to 10 minutes. Wait a few minutes to complete the degassing and then flash the vacuum. The silicone is ready for pouring, either by gravity or under low pressure.

Note: Flashing the vacuum once or twice accelerates the degassing. It is recommended to use a container with a high diameter/height ratio (3 to 4 times of the initial volume)

3. Polymerisation

The curing may be slowed down at lower temperature or accelerated by applying heat.

Note:

Contamination from sulfur (e.g., sulfur-based clay), amines, tin compounds, cured polyester resin, some paints and some silicone rubbers may inhibit surface cure of platinum-cured rubbers.

Apply a release agent, Although not usually necessary, a release agent will make demolding easier when casting into most surfaces.

Packaging
