this without introducing air. Containers of Part A (Resin) and Part B (Hardener) should be kept sealed at all times
when not in use to prevent the ingress of moisture. Bulk material must be thoroughly mixed before use. Incomplete
mixing will result in erratic or partial curing.
General
Sedimentation of the resin has been minimised by careful attention to the formulation. However, any sediment
which may have occurred over long periods of time must be dispersed before removing any material from the
container. This dispersion can be carried out (if necessary) by stirring with a broad bladed spatula or gently rolling
the can. Take care not to introduce excessive amounts of air during this operation or it may be necessary to re-
evacuate the resin. Sedimentation will be accelerated by storage at high temperatures. Sedimentation found in
resin packs forms no problem since the sediment is re-mixed when the pack is used.
Additional Information
Cleaning: It is far easier for machines & containers to be cleaned before the resin has been allowed
to cure. Electrolube’s RRS is suitable for cleaning machines and containers and cured resin
may be slowly softened and removed by soaking in our RRS.
All surfaces must be clean before the mixed resin is applied. Certain materials, chemicals,
curing agents and plasticisers can inhibit the cure of silicone resins. The most notable of
these include:
Organometallic compounds including tin complexes
Silicone rubber containing tin catalysts
Sulphur, polysulphides, polysulphones or other sulphur containing materials
Amines, urethanes or other amine containing materials
Unsaturated hydrocarbon plasticisers
Some solder flux residues
Curing: Do not heat cure large volumes immediately. Allow these to gel at room temperature and
post-cure at high temperature if required (refer to liquid properties for details). Small
volumes (<250ml) may be heat cured immediately.
Health & Safety: Always refer to the Health & Safety data sheet before use. These can be downloaded
