INHIBITION:
New molds made with tin catalyzed silicones often have a tendency to inhibit the cure of various urethane materials that are cast against the silicone. Post-curing a new mold at 150F (66°C) for 24 hours will eliminate the cure inhibition problem in most cases. It is also recommended that the mold surface be washed thoroughly with soap and warm water then dried before use.
MIXING:
TC-5005 A/B is processed by adding curing agent "B" at a ratio of 10 parts by weight to 100 parts by weight of "A". Mix for 2 to 3 minutes in a clean container, then transfer material to another clean container and mix for another 2 to 3 minutes. TheTC-5005 “C” component can be added as much as 50% to the total weight of TC-5005 A/B. This will increase the elongation and lower the amount of force needed to elongate the product. With the maximum amount of part “C” added a slight tack might be present on the surface of the part. By painting this surface with silicone paints or applying talc powder to the surface, this tack can be eliminated.
