ELASTOSIL® LR 6200 A/B

1 of 114 products in this brand
ELASTOSIL® LR 6200 A/B is a liquid silicone rubber (LSR) that is solvent-free and free-flowing. It utilizes additive curing and consists of two components. This grade is specifically designed for textile coatings. ELASTOSIL® LR 6200 A/B has a very low viscosity, allowing for good penetration into the substrate and a dry surface touch. It is particularly well suited for textile coating applications that require enhanced flame retardancy.

Application Details
  • ELASTOSIL LR 6200 A/B is a liquid silicone rubber with very low viscosity to produce textile coatings with good penetration into the substrate and dry surface touch.
  • ELASTOSIL® LR 6200 A/B is well suited for textile coatings applications requiring enhanced flame retardancy.

Processing

  • ELASTOSIL® LR 6200 A/B is processed by thorough mixing of componente A and B in a ratio 1 : 1.
  • Recommended curing conditions: 3 min at 150°C or 1 min at 180°C.
  • Adhesion of ELASTOSIL® LR 6200 A/B is generally good on nylon and polyester fabrics. It can be necessary in some cases to improve adhesion with additives (e.g. CATALYST C05 or adhesion promoters). Preliminary testing should be carried out to determine optimum formulation and cure conditions.
