POWERSIL® GEL C 670 A/B

1 of 35 products in this brand
POWERSIL® GEL C 670 A/B is a two-component, addition-curing silicone mixture that cures at room temperature to a soft silicone gel. The gel is filled with a special lightweight filler, resulting in low density and compressibility. This unique compressibility makes the material suitable for applications in closed instruments without pressure compensation containers.

Application Details
  • Important :
    • The platinum catalyst is contained in component A. Only components A and B with the same lot number may be processed together.
  • Surface preparation :
    • All surfaces must be clean and free of contaminants that will inhibit the cure of POWERSIL® GEL C 670 A/B. Examples of inhibiting contaminants are sulfur containing materials, plasticizers, urethanes, amine containing materials and organometallic compoundsespecially organo-tin compounds.
    • If a substrate’s ability to inhibit curing is unknown, a small scale test should be run to determine compatibility.
  • Mixing :
    • Components A and B must be homogenized before use, due to separation of light weight filler. The two components should be thoroughly mixed at a 1 : 1 ratio by weight or volume. To eliminate any air introduced during dispensing or trapped under components or devices a vacuum encapsulation is recommended.
    • We recommend running preliminary tests to optimize conditions for the particular application. Comprehensive processing instructions are given in our leaflet “Wacker RTV-2 Silicone RubberProcessing”.
  • Curing :
    • Curing time of addition curing silicone rubber is highly dependent on temperature, size and heat sink properties of the component being potted.
