ELASTOSIL® R 401/10 OH is a high-consistency silicone rubber (HCR). Vulcanizates cured with peroxide made from this compound exhibit a unique combination of characteristics. They are known for their good flexibility, high transparency, and mechanical properties. The compounds can be easily pigmented with ELASTOSIL® Color Paste PT and have good processing characteristics. This product serves as a low-duro silicone rubber base suitable for extrusion and molding applications. It is also used in the manufacturing of silicone sponge articles in combination with peroxide crosslinkers.
