- Application Details
- ELASTOSIL® COLOR PASTE FL VIOLET AUBERGINE 2603 C has been developed particularly for coloring addition-curing ELASTOSIL® LR liquid silicone rubber and ELASTOSIL® RT RTV-2 silicone rubber.
- ELASTOSIL® COLOR PASTE FL VIOLET AUBERGINE 2603 C may be used for coloring silicone parts intended for sensitive applications and complying with the “Recommendation XV. Silicones" and “IX.
- Pigments for coloring plastics" of the BfR and FDA Regulation CFR 21 § 177.2600 "Rubber Articles Intended for Repeated Use" under observance of any given limitations on extractable and volatile substances.
- A statement regarding biocompatibility according to USP class VI and selected tests of ISO 10993 is available on request.
Processing
Before using a ELASTOSIL® Color Paste FL, the color paste must be thoroughly stirred. This is also necessary if there has been a long interruption in production. Depending on the color intensity desired, 0.5 to 4.0 % pigment paste should be added. The concentration should be kept at a minimum. In individual cases, an excess of color paste may slow down the curing characteristics. Customers may produce other colors by mixing pigment pastes. Suggestions for formulations can be provided on request.
