SILTHIXO (thixo)
Silicone RTV (Room Temperature Vulcanization) of high viscosity (thixotropic) special for large molds applied by layers. Requires THIX additive to control viscosity.
Silicone for molds, also known as Silicone RTV (Room Temperature Vulcanization) is a fluid paste that hardens through the action of a catalyst. In this way we obtain a flexible material with unique non-stick properties, which will facilitate the reproduction of multiple parts with total security and tranquility *.
Depending on the mechanical needs of the mold, it is advisable to use a silicone or another.
Standard silicones (Condensation or Addition), Silicone for large molds applied by "thixo" layers, silicone for metal that supports up to 350ºc (lead, tin, low melting point alloys) and silicone for food contact.
Standard mold silicone for application for casting. Thanks to its low viscosity, it guarantees a high degree of detail and a medium durability. Flexible and easy to release moulds.
Big / Vertical moulds. This silicone it is designed for vertical applications due to its high viscosity and good strength.
You need the THIX additive to adapt the viscosity of the silicone
Silicone for molds with a characteristic red color that gives it a special load that gives it very high properties in relation to resistance to high temperatures. This property makes it an ideal silicone for molds where you need to apply metals of the low melting point category (max 350ºC). Lead, Pewter,...
Food silicone addition for all types of reproductions. Shore 40. Specially formulated with raw materials that allow this silicone to be used for the preparation of molds in which food must be cast (chocolate, jellies, Custards ...). You can go to the freezer and withstand temperatures in the oven up to 200 º C.
RESINECO sells the silicone catalysts with a blue pigment incorporated so that the correct mixing of all the material is very visible and thus ensure that no parts of the silicone remain unreacted.
The silicone catalysts might contain toxic salts and should be handled with caution. Check the safety data sheet before use.
Powder, which when mixed with water in the correct proportions, and by means of a chemical reaction, produces a mass that is capable of reproducing in a negative a model.
