Products in Wire & Cable: Silicones

Silopren™ LSR 3696/25 liquid silicone rubber is a two-component liquid silicone rubber for injection molding processes. This material is an excellent candidate to consider for the manufacture of elastomeric articles requiring self-lubricating properties. The self-lubricating effect is achieved by a fluid which exudes out of the vulcanizate over an extended period of time. It typically starts between a few hours and one day after vulcanization. Silopren™ LSR 3696/25 liquid silicone rubber shows an excellent compression set after vulcanization without post-curing.Key Features and BenefitsVulcanizates consisting of Silopren™ LSR 3696/25 liquid silicone rubber are typically distinguished by the following properties: ultra-low compression set without post-cure self-lubricating properties low viscosity fast cure low modulus high thermal stability increased crack resistance outstanding resistance to aging easy to color Potential ApplicationsBecause of the outstanding properties, Silopren™ LSR 3696/25 liquid silicone rubber is an excellent candidate to consider for use in wire harness applications for the following elastomeric articles: cable seals mat seals grommets gaskets plug seals.
