ELASTOSIL® E47 Transparent

1 of 230 products in this brand
ELASTOSIL® E47 Transparent is a non-slump, one-component acetoxy-cure silicone rubber that cures at room temperature under the influence of atmospheric moisture. It shows particularly excellent adhesion to cured silicone elastomers. Vulcanization can be accelerated by elevated temperatures (up to 80°C).

Product Type: 1K (1 component) Sealant

Safety & Health

Safety Notes

During vulcanization of ELASTOSIL® E47 TRANSPARENT, a total of 3% by weight of acetic acid is split off. These vapors should not be inhaled for long periods or in high concentration. Work areas should therefore be well ventilated. Contact of unvulcanized silicone rubber with eyes and mucous membranes must be avoided as this would cause irritation. However if it does happen, rinse the affected area thoroughly with water.
