SORTA-Clear® 40 is a premium water white translucent silicone rubber (platinum catalyst) that cures at roomtemperature with negligible shrinkage. SORTA-Clear® 40 has a Shore hardness of 40A and features exceptional tear andtensile strength. Rubber clarity is especially useful when extracting models via cutting.
SORTA-Clear® rubber is ideal for making prototype, jewelry or other molds of any configuration where model visibility is important (i.e. extracting a model from the mold via cutting). Materials such as urethane, epoxy or polyester resins can then be cast into SORTA-Clear® silicone without application of a release agent. Other materials such as wax and low melt metal alloys can also be cast intoSORTA-Clear®. SORTA-Clear® can be pigmented with SILC Pig® silicone pigments.
Sorta Clear® 40 is also FOOD SAFE and can be used for culinary applications including casting chocolate and other confections. (See separate technical bulletin for usage instructions available at www.smooth-on.com).
