Genesee Polymers GP-670

Genesee Polymers GP-670 silicone resin solution is an Ethyl Alcohol -based solution of Methyl silicone Resin. The resin forms a solid release coating when GP-670 silicone resin solution is applied to substrates and solvent is allowed to evaporate. Film formation occurs at room temperature and results in a durable, weather resistant, non-stick surface after solvent evaporation, which normally occurs within a few minutes.Best performance is attained when GP-670 is applied to substrates by spraying, making sure that a wet continuous film covers the substrate, followed by allowing the carrier solvent to evaporate. Some additional improvement in durability will occur, in mold release applications when the treated mold is heated to 80 -100C, for one hour prior to beginning molding operation.GP-670 silicone resin solution is suggested for use in a variety of applications, including masonry water repellents, leather and fabric treating agents, mold release formulations and as a binder for high temperature application paints and coatings.
